I know this is a general question but as its for this car i thought id ask here. The oil light has come on 2 times in the past week and when i dip it there seems to be plenty so i was wondering when is it best to check the oil level, i imagine its when the car is cold i.e first thing in the morning?

You are meant to check the oil fully warmed up, engine off and oil left to settle for 15-30 mins so it has all collected back in the sump. That said on my MkIV R32 it didn't seem to affect the readings but on my current car it does so if you are having issues I would try that first.
