   haynes manuel will tell you the lot.
   
   oil filter is on the front left handside near to the alternator.
   
   spark plugs are very easy to replace if you have the right tools

   if you get under the car then look up you should easily find it.
   
   this is even more of a help

   is your car a mk1 or mk2? if its a mk2 its only the filter part u change, the cover just unscrews and then you bin the filter part and replace with a new one. if its a mk1 you buy the hole filter with the cover around it, kinda like a tin can. both are in the same places though.
