£206!! inc VAT!!!! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] mine was £280 inc (local well respected garage among Northants Scooby owners).

Should have gone up to Notts!

With regards to what the service involves, I believe it's everything the 45k service has EXCEPT the cambelt.

Red face

needing mine, er, sooner than I expected - better get some overtime in then...

Think it is:
# plugs
# leads
# air filter
# oil filter

not sure about:
# fuel filter?
# PAS fluid?
# brake fluid?

If you have up to and including MY99, the 60k service is the same as the 30k one (change all the fluids) and should cost £350-450.

If you have MY00 and 01 (I believe), the 60k service is 30k+cambelt and will be in excess of £700

MY02 onwards is a bit tricky because the servicing intervals changed to 10k.

May be it's different for turbos?

I have a Sport and my cambelt was done at 48k and 54k was oil and oil filter. I am expecting it to be oil filter, oil, plugs, leads, air filter and fuel filter???

Anyway, however much it costs, I'm not going to not get it done as I enjoy the car too much not to have it
