Don't think everything is cheap and nasty. According to Bob the oil guy, Hyundai make some of the best oil filters on the market! Wouldn't be surprised if our plug were Iridium units.

They are Iridium. Hence the 120000km service intervals.
Fairly certain they are NGK's too.

You only had to mention it once, no need to repeat the same post over and over.

Just because the ceramic is discoloured doesn't mean they are warn, I think you need a better/real mechanic.

It's quite normal for spark plugs to discolour due to ionization of gasses and fuel combustion products. What you don't want to see are cracks in the ceramic insulation.
