I've paid 500 something for mine with free updates for 2 years. Never tried on Mercs though but functions list looks pretty decent. Worked well me on Fords, Vauxhalls, PSAs and BMWs. It is bidirectional so you can perform actuation tests. Never failed on DPF regen. Also retrieved pin codes few times on Vauxhall and Audi.

Launch x431 Mini Pro

I would say you really overanalyzing things. I see two reasons why car was warm: 1. It has flat battery so was left running. 2. It has working aircon so somebody was just chilling down in it...

Great result! Who said "you won't get it removed ever"???

Totally agree- weldng skils is a must fixing that type of stuff. Mr2 mx5 supras e30 944 and other desirable 90's classics are mostly fuel injected anyway so forget carbs.

Great idea. Something I fancied for years myself... Just can't imagine how you can make profit with this business model unfortunately. Especially doung it part time.

Hello Tommy. Thanks for your input. It was quite clear that UK trade plates in the format they are can not be used abroad. But what about road tax? Should the vehicle really be taxed? Thanks. Kes.

This.

For what???

Part time equals low volume in my book. Last part time insurance I had was about 2.5k then went to up to 3.5k - no claims no convictions no penaltiess. And it was end of part time trade for me.

Where the car is registred?

Do not release the car the same day, would be my advice.

Another good is Launch X431 pros mini. Around 600 on ebay. Does more than most need.

+1 At least one reasonable comment. Thanks.

Who do you pay to for the car- BCA or Vendor? I guess that answers who's responsable.

Plenty of holders and brackets for TP on ebay. Some are good and some not. Personally prefer cable ties in most cases.

Same here. Did it at least 5 times this year. V5 arrives in a week usually. Never new old keepers postcode...

This.

Carry on with F book and Gumtree.

Words if wisdom here. Finally.

This is Scam is old as world. Received exactly same email with exactly same wording when was selling old sofa on gumtree 5 years ago... Another classic is from a sailor who is in the middle of the sea now but desperately needs your car...

A bit less than that- 1350.

Maybe it is worth wait for the result first?
