I took out the offer when I booked my car in for its 4th year service earlier in the year.  It will cover whatever two services you need.

Cambelt change is not included in the offer so is an extra charge

a lot of dealers have offers on a cambelt service of £299, it's not in the £299 for 2 services and mots.  also a dealer has to match a like for like quote within 5 miles i think. so shop around.  dealers can be negotiated with.
