Default XR8 running very rough

Missus took the XR8 out last Saturday and gave me a call at home saying the car is shaking. When I got there I started the car and it looked and sounded like it was running on 5 or 6 cylinders. Its done 92,000 and I had just bought NGK iridium plugs so I put them in and it made no difference. I took it to a mate of mine who used to be a Ford mechanic and he pulled some of the leads out and it looked like No. 7 lead made no difference so he suggested it could either be the HT leads or the coil pack. I then went and bought new HT leads and guess what ? Still no difference. I then went and bought a coil pack and again no difference. Any ideas ? I have reached my limit as to what to try next.
