I have asked about this and was told first service is 10K.
I tried to explain to the 'dolly bird' receptionist about how some high performance engines need a running in service but she was having none of it.
But the engines in the Golf GTI / R arent exactly high-performance or special hand-built engines to warrant a 1500 mile Oil change / service. 
I could understand it, if the VAQ diff needed a 1500 mile oil change though like BMW M cars do but they don't as far as I am aware. 
Yeah understood, I do actually have an M car too. Just frustrates me when you are trying to explain something slightly technical and the lasses the put on reception have no idea what you're talking about and it's impossible to speak to the mechanic.
I take my M to a local specialist, just two guys. It's wonderful to be able to converse directly with them about any concerns or issue I may have. Simply don't get that at a main dealer, too many steps in the ladder and often end up like chinese whispers.
