Thanks both lupogtiboy - that makes it more or less just an oil change, which means I'm more than a little surprised that the highly recommended independent VW specialists I'm taking it to want £240 for the service... sorry to be a pain, but are you sure that's all VW say to do on the 60k? (Not having a handbook is a giant pita...) I really need to get everything done, since I don't know any of the car's history before about 4 months ago, so if the 60k service is just an oil change I'll do that myself and give them a list of the real jobs to do, cambelt & water pump, clutch (which is circling the drain anyway) brake fluid, etc. What do you think?
