Probably a little bit too far north of Camden, I took ours to a VW dealer, Sheppards in Bishops Stortford (up the M11 2nd junction after the M25).
They did a really good job. It cost £298 for the 2 year (at 36000 miles) Long Life service using VAG approved parts, changing all the filters and fluids (including brake fluid) and the MOT. They washed my car and also lent me a brand new Polo for the day.
No fuss, no hassle, just a good job well done!!
So you probably won't want to drive to Bishops Stortford, but try your local VW dealer, I would hope they will provide a similar price and quality of service.
Oh and FYI the Local Audi Stealer wanted just over £440 for the exact same service!

I just had mine serviced [47000 miles] yesterday at the main dealer in Chingford, North London. It was £199 inc VAT - not sure if this is a good price or not for a main dealer but it was £50 less than the quote so I was happy. They were pleasant enough to deal with, picked up & delivered the car from home as I couldnt be bothered with a courtesy car [child seats etc]They of course told me about a further £1100 worth of work that my car needs although I have since shopped around & managed to reduce that by about 70%! They weren't pushy either [considering I am a female driver] other than a call to ask if I am interested in changing my car as they have A2 buyers lined up - told them 'No way Hosé' I shed blood, sweat & tears to find this car & have no plans of parting with it. Ever!

Well done you! It was the right choice
BTW, I think Russell Automotive Centre at Kingsbury (NW London) is an award winner at ADI and may be partner of A2OC (correct me if wrong). Steve Russell himself should be at the workshop most of the time. I last serviced with them.
