Exclamation Genuine VAG-COM GB on uk-mkivs.net

This is a last minute call for people who would like to obtain a genuine VAG-COM cable for running diagnostics via Ross-Tech's VAG-COM software (www.ross-tech.com).

You will need to act fast as they are now approaching the final stages and unfortunately, many people seem to be dropping out.
Therefore if you want to buy one, you will have to post in the uk mkiv thread =>HERE<=. If you are not a member, it's free to join.

By doing so, you are COMMITTING yourself to buying one. So do this only once you have decided you want one and able to pay the discounted pricing below. This is a serious group buy and many people have invested lots of time and effort organising it so please do not let it down. Thank you!

Pricing is as follows - this includes shipping, VAT and exchange rates:
Code:
Product      Normal Price  Discounted Price (-20%)     VAT     P+P     Total Price
KEY-USB          $249         $199.2 = £101.59       £17.78    £5        £124.37
HEX-USB+CAN      $349         $279.2 = £142.39       £24.92    £5        £172.31
Micro-CAN        $249         $199.2 = £101.59       £17.78    £5        £124.37
This is a fantastic opportunity to grab a VAG-COM cable at a healthy 20% discounted rate, with all the hassle taken off (I feel sorry for Basil who's taken this up on uk-mkivs

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS GROUP BUY (although participating in it).

THIS GROUP BUY IS BEING MANAGED EXCLUSIVELY BY Bazzmcc ON UK-MKIVS, IT IS NEITHER RUN NOR SUPPORTED BY BRISKODA.NET AND THEREFORE BRISKODA.NET CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE

Yep, come on people - get on board! Already a fair handful of us have joined in on this from here.

It's a chance to get a great discount on a very useful bit of kit - a discount that's very unlikely to be available again!

Just to double check, the "HEX-USB + CAN" option at £172.31 includes the ability to interrogate all cars (new & old) and a license for VAG-COM built in?

With buying this cable, does it give you the full function of VAG-COM ?

Yes.

Also, you don't need to worry about registering / activating your software copy like you used to have to with the older versions. The proper Ross-tech cables (which is what this group buy is getting) has the "dongle" built into the cable, so just load up the latest version of VAG-COM on ANY PC, plug the cable in and away you go.

Minimum hassle, maximum benefits with all the features VAG-COM has to offer

Sorry for all the questions..
Am i right in saying that if i went for the Hex-USB + Can, it would work both on my 02 Octavia vRS, and my boss's 06 Audi RS4 ?

Trying to get him to go halfers with me !

Will work fine.

Good luck getting money out of your boss though it doesn't look like he's short of a bob! RS4 <drool>

Fingers crossed.

Just snuck in at the 11th hour (and 59 minutes and 59 seconds) and bagged a HEX-USB-CAN jobbie
