The 15k plugs etc - why did you have/keep them?

The car had been running fine and untouched on the engine for about a year or so, which came as a big surprise. The coil pack was destroyed (2 pieces) and the plug was clear of the engine.
The older plugs were from when I had timing issues with the cam tensioners a long while back and the engine was partially rebuilt and serviced. I got a new cam belt fitted as well at the time, though the current one had only done 20K on the basis that fitting new made sense since the labour was paid for etc......I'm a bit of a hoarder of old bits that 'may come in useful'
