Quads - Squats + leg press
Hamstrings - hamstring curls
Calves - calf raises

All basics really and do them at 3x8/10/12 depending on circumstances.

^^ I do the same as above, although I do a couple of sets of leg extensions at the start to pre-exhaust the quads and warm up.

Have you ever isolated your quads for a bit of variation ? Leg extension first ,followed by squats ?

Leg press is useful to work till failure if you don't have a spotter.

Squats / front squats / hack squats / leg press mainly for quads but obviously hit hams too

Leg extention isolating quads

Leg curl / SLDL for hams.

Calf raises / calf press for calves

I vary reps depending on whole workout but I like to do some high and some lower reps, so I may do 8 reps for squats and then 15 reps for leg press.

Hello mate,

Depends on your overall routine to what days you do things on but generally and the most common answer you will get (which is what i do too) is...
Squats - 3 x 8
Deadlifts - 3 x 8 (could do different variation such as stiff-legged etc)
Leg Press - 3 x 6 - 10
Calf raises - 3 x 8
Lunges - 3 x 8 (each leg)

thats me personally obviously i play around quite a bit with mine now and again.
