Yippee! Am taking my S3 to Austec this Saturday for the £250 6k service and rolling road and MOT. Based on your experience page3, I'm thoroughly looking forward to seeing what the get out of the old girl.
I don't have any particular grumbles with the car at all, so fingers crossed they don't find anything wrong.
