Best bet is your VW dealer, but generally:

10k miles / 1 year : Oil service

20k miles / 2 years : Inspection service

Brake fluid is every 2 years

Cambelt varies as it depends who you speak to but generally 40k miles / 4 years to be on the safe side and do the water pump at the same time...

If you have no history and want a starting point do it all.

I've got some good history (VW receipts and all up to last year), but am living by that principle too in getting everything done over the next little while, starting from scratch really:
New brakes and LLIII oil change done this month.
Renewing brake fluid, re-charge on air-conditioning and new air / pollen filters next.
Timing belt and water pump in the near future....

Does your air filter get very dirty Rhys? I checked mine back before the summer and it was quite dirty. I cleaned it with the Dyson!!
