First service 340i - midlands

Has anyone recently had an interim service on their 340i somewhere in the midlands? I assume it's oil + micro filter for the first service?

£330 on the website, can anywhere do any better?

I'm nowhere near the midlands, but I just had my 440i first service done at a BMW specialist for £218

Tricky to justify that when you can literally go on the BMW website and book it for 330...

Worth checking first if the Indy has the ability to update the service history on BMW's central servers, otherwise it gets wiped if updated by a main dealer later on (like I recently found out).

I use them, specialists with M cars but service all BMW's and they have the licence software to update the iDrive to BMW servers.
