1998 Citroen Xsara 1.4i - Spark plug inspection; where are they! - John F

After 2yrs ownership I thought it might be a good idea to look at the plugs [no idea when last changed] but I can't see them! It looks like a morning's work to remove vast quantities of black plastic airways and widgetery to enable application of a plug spanner!

My son and I would greatly appreciate any advice........perhaps we should just leave well alone as plugs seem to last for ever these days!
