I'm not familiar with the UK stuff...

But the basic problem sounds like you may have been getting a P035x primary ignition circuit code, which sometimes could be a bad coil but not always.

As with any code it real should be diagnosed out. Since you've changed the coil pack and are getting the same code the rest of circuit is going to need to be checked. On these ones I've seen a simple bad ground cause this code all the way to bad drivers in the PCM...........
