Hi my friends , look at the pic of coil , you can see on black area ''Lucas'' name . A friend of mine buy like this coil (101 part number ) but it not Lucas name of black area , only has a green colour sticker.

Can you tell me any one has buy that coil as same as the pic or is it only pic ?

Yes that’s what the Lucas coils look like now.. but I’ve recently discovered that they’re of poor quality.

My old Lucas coil finally start to burn condensers ,(Coil was bad ) , then i remove it , now i use Japan coil with ressitor , seem to be not fine , - lot of my friends in UK use old lucas coil or New Lucas coils (pic one ) - what is the best for the car ?

This one

My car is fitted with an old, reliable coil but anything from the good doctor is likely to be quality stuff.........I can confirm that his condensors are worth fitting for peace of mind that they will last, and I have achieved a very good set-up with his points.

Hi Sandun,

I bought one of those Lucas coils about 5 years ago, and in my experience, they are not the same quality as the 'old' Lucas ones - it failed after about 18 months

My god...many Thanks for share your experience with me.

the coils from distriubter doctor or accuspark are good

The Flamethrower suggestion is spot on. Cured my problem perfectly.
