Can anyone tell me if these leads fit our cars (S2-v6 2.9i) ?
Or if not, can anyone recommend any please ? (websites etc)
Cheers in advance.

depends which distributor your car has fitted. Even Ford are confused.
Some distributors (Motorcraft I think) have male terminals on the distributor - ie the same end as the spark plug. Those leads in the enlarged photos won't fit.
Some are Bosch distributors I think - they have female distributor ends (DIN ends) and those leads would fit.
I don't know if the caps are interchangeable - I remember somebody saying that they aren't.
Also watch the coil lead - most coils are also DIN fitting but the Ford one isn't - it's that male "spark plug" connector again.
