So I'm going to be changing my spark plugs. Would it be worth while changing the ignition coils at the same time?

I replaced my ignition coils with Bosch ones because I was getting a rough idle and quite an abrupt flatspot at 1500rpm when the engine was cold.

I think they were about £130 total, from eurocarparts, but it seemed to do the job as I no longer have the flatspot.

I have zero issues with the car, I'm thinking of doing as service item. £130 ain't bad at all. The plugs are only £50 so it's cheap enough too keep things running smooth
