Get the good old fashioned NGKs (BKR6 or something, do a search) £14 from halfords and change them with your oil.

Not a fan of these 'special' long lasting ones

I use copper tipped NGK 6097's and change them every month with my oil and they are around 3 quid each \:D/

Just replaced mine with the standard £14 copper NGKs from Halfords, felt like I was driving a new car! Certainly got rid of the slight stutter I had beforehand.

Recommended.

Ive often wondered if these are any good. Whats the advantage/disadvantage in using them? Are they "worth" buying over the standard copper ngk ones that everyone seems to have?
