IIRC they are only due at 72K, there is no age on that.

I'd replace the plugs mine looked quite bad after two years. Get NGK PFR6E-10 off ebay and change them yourself it's quite easy to do and better than paying garage rates.

the ones on ebay arent they factory seconds?

Who's doing your belts? If its Renault then dont bother you can get the plugs far cheaper elsewhere plus fitting them is very easy anyway

as said it's not necessary, but you may as well whilst car is already having some work done.
