I bought four individually from HAE in Portsmouth

see http://www.cafco.co.uk

They were a couple of quid each but I had to order them and they took a week to arrive.

Julian,
you haven't made allowances in your calculations for Chriss' Triump with the twin spark head conversion. Thats why he buys 10 at a time :)

Gus,

I think you'll find that that method of installation retards the ignition...

I bought the motorcraft FR6DP equivalents for £3.50 each from my local motor factor in Feltham.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

The FR6DP's are the same as NGK gold paladium at the thick end of ten pounds a pop either plug is shit loads better than your standard stuff.
