I think "My Naff Code Reader" have got their market confused, it's a good hobbyist product but priced as a professional tool.
As Jimbob says priced sub £100 they would shift many many more units and surely make more dosh.
The flaky nature of some of the systems does not warrant the price tag to me but as a hobbyists tool it does much more than the cheapo tech2 leads.

The product has far too many faults to be a professional tool. It really is in the hobbyist/DIY market.  Garages will use multi-marque readers such as the snap-offs etc

Hence why the cheap chinese knock offs are popular among hobbyists but the official kit doesn't sell to the motor trade.
Like you say if considering spending £600 on their kit you're seriously going to look at paying the extra for genuine tech2 and all the support it comes with from VX.

at £100, I bet 10's of us on here would have them.

be well worth it.

so, at £100, maybe £3000 from this forum
at £600, they earn £0

and how many Vauxhall forums are out there?

no,i paid £xxxx inc p&p for it

Modified by TheBoy, no discussion of illegal software, as per forum rules

If you are in the UK, unless you bought it from the UK Distributor at a cost of around £600, they it is an illegal copy, most likely a cheap Chinese clone.  Thus no discussion on this site I'm afraid.

Not only this posting "My Naff Code Reader" seems to get confused with Opel Autoscanner both are interfaces that read codes from diag port

As said "My Naff Code Reader" around £600. Opel Scanner £340.00 for legal interfaces.
Unable to say which is best for your needs?
