not new and leased you wouldnt, and don't forget if chipping it then you could always go for the one that enables you to return it to standard and "hides" the remap from dealers etc.

Ermmm . . . . . NOTHING is hidden from the stealers!  Even with Bluefin or Revo with SPS, or any of the others, the stealer will STILL know it has been remaped!  :rolleyes:

Tried the rocco..

great to look, drove well, but it was let down by poor visibility, less practicality than the golf, interior too similar to mk5, and some little niggling issues that I just couldnt live with.

there were some great deals on lease.. but i think i got an even better one on the golf  :wink:

weren't meaning that it would be totally hidden, but it wouldn't be immediate...they'd have to have a reason to be looking for it is what i meant, as the car would drive and respond electronically as normal, only if they were doing a full diagnostic would it show up.  i also suspect you could have a few of the chip remap companies for lying about the stealth of these if it isnt the case. :wink:

There was a saluatory tale in here last year I think where the dude mapped his lease car.... It went tits up somehow, he was left with no car and a bill for the replacement... Can't remember the facts but it's on here somewhere...was a total mare for the guy.

Just be aware of the risks when you go remapping someone elses car...
