I'm sure I'll get my money's worth out of it on this vehicle alone. It's a pretty slick setup with a Bluetooth dongle that plugs into the OBD port and a tablet that hooks up to Wi-Fi.
I upgraded from the $19 Costco special (that I was dumb lucky read CAN) to a Bosch1350 that I got for about $100.
It certainly provides a lot more data than my old scanner.
I would recommend it to anyone needing to read euro cars at the shade tree mechanic level.
