REMAP vs RESALE

[alix]

I have a '51 plate Ibiza 110 tdi sport with 85k on the clock and am looking at the Upsolute Remap.
However i am only planning on keeping it for a couple of years and am worried about the re-sale value being affected by the remap, would you pay more or less for a mapped car or look for an original example to do yourself, any advice appreciated.

In a couple of years a 51 plate Ibiza is going to be worth next to nothing anyway - I wouldn't even consider it as a problem.

Currently with 85k, easily north of 100k in two years.... it'll easily be worth less than half what its cost now? which I'd guess is £2500 tops

a remap won't make it less valuable, if anything it would increase the value. i would prefer to buy a car that's already been remapped, as long as the remap was done by a good company.

You could always get the map taken off when you decide to sell it.

You could always not mention it has one, the only way they'd find out is rolling road figures.
