Seems a fair price bearing in mind the time taken to do it properly.

If you are running go-tech I would take it to the most experienced people and that would be Jamsport.
If your car does not start however I would assume a larger bill than 400 quid as I expect that is just the quote for the mapping.
The base map should at least get the car running at least imho

If you have gotech take it to Jamsport any other choice involves choosing less experience and they know this system very well.
