Get it to a tuner for proper fault diagnosis mate. it may only be a plug gap thing or it could be coilpack replacement which is circa £200, leads £30 approx and good plugs £30 approx. A set up is a lot less than this lot put together

As Red says Where abouts in the country are you mate? And what sort of misfire is it? Big violent bang bang misfire or a soft "fluffy" one that you can drive through? Where in the Rev range is it happening, full throttle, part throttle etc? Any other symptoms, is the rev counter jumping around etc?
Good place to start is check all the electrcal loom plugs are clean and tidy, the two big fat ones on the passenger side inner wing are a favourite for water ingress and corrosion, and cause misfires.
I would use MSD, can't get better IMHO, thier number is in my sig and they are very very helpful
