Looking at new diagnostic kit - Recommendations?

Post by Ducklakeview » Wed Aug 02, 2017 10:19 am

Ok,

So after nearly dropping my phone after my Snap On man quoted me the best part of £8,500 for a Verus Edge with software - YES the software is £785+vat on top of the £6250 hardware price... I am obviously looking for alternatives...

Andy Fanshawe speaks highly of the Launch X431, and the latest version is the X431 Pro3S V2, which comes in at a fraction of the Snap On price.

Anyone got one/used one or have other recommendations?

Apparently the Launch is VERY good at coding and adaptations, something the Snap On is apparently crap at...

Thoughts?

Mike
