    We're currently using a trial of Xero, works good so far. It's cloud based too ready for next year's tax changes and it can pretty much do your VAT return for you

    That is most likely because he did a proper apprenticeship like myself and others of that era All these young NVQ wallers are mostly clueless bastards, yeah, there are some who have gone the extra mile, but when taking on staff it's a lottery these days

    Yes you sign up with HPI and it works straight from their online portal. It costs £15 for 5 days fully comp Aviva cover and the customer pays that with a card just before they drive off. The dealer sign-up is free.

    It's not great when you are not selling and others are but just get the cars right and the punters will come and buy. Keep the faith!

    Nick, IMHO the Autel is a much better machine than Launch, which is better than Snap On, in the same price bracket of course If you are replacing your Solus I'd be looking at the Autels around £1000 mark

    You scan it with the tool, you paste the fault text (not just a code) in Google and voila: all the knowledge in the world at your fingertips. Diagnostics is far more than that of course and you'll learn as you go but a good own tool and a good garage as a back up option makes life a lot easier.

    I have the Autel Maxi Pro and it is good for EML fault reading and easy to use. Gives me a little bit of gravitas when booking car in for recon, when really I am pretty hopeless mechanically. I believe, a bit like painting (as in artist), you need a high level of natural ability/interest/enthusiasm - you can't simply learn it. Proud of myself this week, I changed a N/S/R light cluster on a V70 mk3 - presumed a few bolts inside access panel....No, bumper off job but did it......thanks YouTube
