Oh its just you said genuine ford or magnacor as ford dont do motorsport leads anymore they are just plain simple motorsport, and i dont know whether its just me and my m8 but we have had nothing but aggro with magnacor leads breaking down so switched to motorsport leads a long time ago

Magnecor leads from my experience are pretty lame, bloody pricey and offer nothing over standard OEM leads. Still surprises me how many people part with the cash for them.

when ford made the motorsport leads back in the 80s they was good as gold. there just cheap copys now that rip the 909 number off ford and offer fuck all to you and no way as good as the std ford lead imo.
