Just checked my invoice, it would've been £147.65 all in, parts were oil, filter, drain plug and screenwash (that didn't even need topping up but they charged for it anyway the buggers) plus an 'express visual check' and connect to the computer.

They usually do that with the screenwash. I usually fill up the screenwash up to the brim before dropping the car off for service. They tried to pull the screenwash stunt on me the first time and it didn't work for them as I told them I topped up the fluid before bringing in the car. They "kindly" deducted it from the final invoice as a "commercial gesture", cheeky p***ks. For my second GTI I went for the service plan so not that bothered anymore.
