Plugs: $25 each vs $6 each
Oil Filter: $30 vs $6
Front Rotors: $250 pair (RDA) vs $130 pair (EBC)
Belt: $25 (trade) vs $7

How much was postage from them? I might need new front disks in the near future...

I got all that stuff plus new pads and few other filters/bits and pieces delivered for $400. Postage was about $100 due to weight of the rotors!

Doesn't include the Bora. But have a look at this thread for the service intervals and information for the 2.0, 1.8T and 3.2 Golfs.

I have been in the Sydney Dealer network for over 10 years & don't know anything about Bora service schedule being different to a Golf except for the Haldex part of it. GTI is the same also!
They are still 15k 12 months anyways. Where did that list come from??? is that for a O.S market?.
