Just had mine done at Austec, its a bit of a trek from rochester but worth it, much cheaper than a main dealer, and they gave me a courtesy car and it was done in a day!!!
£900 for a 12000 mile service and tappet check/adjust.
Some good news about the top end too, looks like she's got the later spec followers

Just had a 12k service at APM Automotive. Again, a bit of a trek but at £495 including VAT I can't complain and a very good job Andy did too.

Yes, it did. I went for the 12k service even though it only needed a 6k service as the 6k service plus tappets was slightly more expensive. £495 incl VAT and tappets for a 12k service must be the best deal out there.
