The 30k service is usually a big one with all the gearbox and diff oils changed. But yours is a low mileage, so it might have already been done. You will need to check back through the records to see what's due.

Behind your filler flap is a sticker saying you should use super unleaded (98+RON). This basically limits you to Shell V-Power or Tesco 99 (if you can get it). Using this will protect the engine and give you more power. It is a bit more expensive, but it will be worth it.

I think you will find the 30000 mile service is a big one plugs, oil filter. oil, front diff oil, rear diff oil, gear box oil, coolant change and air filter.

It will be a 50k service and that is a cambelt service, it goes by either the mileage or the date, ie if its 5 years old and has done 30k then its a 5 year/50k service, if its 2 years old and has done 30k its a 30k service.
