Reviving car after 30 months rest

I have borrowed an ill friend's Pug 106. It has done nothing for 2.5
years. It started first time after we put a new battery in and seems o.k. The brakes are fine after the muck has been scraped off them by a few stopping tests, the oil had some mayonnaise in the lid. The tyres were at full/normal pressure and are in good condition.
It's going for the MOT this week. Would it be prudent to have a big service and MOT, especially as I am borrowing the car and using it a few times a week? I could do an Italian Service BUT it's not my car so I am a little loathe to treat it unkindly! Seems that oil, brake fluid, coolant, cambelt, full service approach will be best bet.
Any other thoughts pls?
