Help please. Have conflicting information on spark plugs for the above model.

NGK website says NGK ZGR5A, halfords says NGK BPR6ES.

I imagine they are both ok, but which is best?

NGK ZGR5A, I use this for 1990 and it is good.
NGK BPR6ES, is for the earlier car the one with distributor on the side of engine.
