Try opie oils for oil.

Break fluid is recommended every 2 years.

Actually a 30k service is just the oil and oil filter replaced
40k is the VAG reccomendations for the air , fuel and spark plugs.
We do them every 20k as this keeps everything running tip top
So it should only require the oil and filter , lights , levels , check over and diagnostics
Brake fluid replacemnet has nothing to do with the miles it is just purly every 2 years
Go for GOOD oil and possibly fully synthetic , we use Mobil 1 one of the best
IIRC it is every 6 years for the coolant replacment too , but maybe worth getting the strength checked over with the cooler weather coming on
Hope that helps
