As the OP I'll chuck my thoughts in
I'm not comfortable with letting a turbo charged engine go to 18000 miles without changing the oil. Especially for its first change.
Its well know that turbo engines are harder on their oil and I think the money would be well spent. If nothing else it will show the next owner that the car has been well looked after.
The only question for me is to whether or not I do it myself or get the dealer to do it. If I do it myself its a lot cheaper.
If the dealer does it I get a stamp in the book, no warranty bother, the car is checked (I've asked and they do) and I think the car is plugged into diagnostics and updated.
I suppose the question to me is, is that worth £100?
