Have now read the site rules.

Hi Soviet here,

By posting a couple of threads on this site, I have fallen foul of the rules regarding advertising, and my threads have been deleated, by the site owner. it is a good enjoyable site and so I will comply as asked by the site owner. (Colin D or Stu)

I actually found a cheaper place to get VAG-COM HEX-USB+CAN version 702 and so any one that would like details please contact me, by the member contact service, as I think that this is allowed. (If not, I'm sure that Stu will delete this also.)

I have not tried this supplier yet but I am going to, as the cost works out at £45 for my car.

My Car is an Octavia LX Mk1 2001 engine type AEE.

It was not my intention to advertise for this supplier,as I do not know of him from Adam, and it is not as if I have shares in the company. I was actually trying to help other Briskolians to get a much cheaper cable, instead of the 'RIP off' being charged by the popular American Suppliers.

I am going to order one, as I have ordered several things from the Chinese, that are a dammed site cheaper, and have never been let down once. I am prepared to risk it and then let you all know, for good or for bad the out come.

Thank you

Soviet

So is this an approved/licenced alternative or are you promoting piracy?

How many times are you going to post the same message.

FYI, ColinD is the site owner.

I would suggest if your posts have been deleted twice, you must have been doing something wrong. We allow group buys where the benefit is genuinely for the members. What is not allowed is obvious affiliation with a supplier.

As implied above, we also do not condone the supply or promotion of any items that breach copyright or intellectual property. If you promote illicit VAGCOM copies, be aware that there are Ross-Tech employees registered on here who will be quick to point out their rights. Your supplier may be perfectly legitimate, however £45 is quite a lot to pay for just a cable, so the suggestion is that some software is being provided also.

It will for sure be a counterfeit cable mate. The latest range of cables, ones which will work with that version of software, have authentication built in. These are only available from Ross-Tech or their authorised distributors.

If you want a cheap solution buy a cheap cable from eBay that will work with the older versions of the software and either use the demo version for free or buy a license only from Ross Tech for $99.

I always say you get what you pay for, Personaly I have spent a damn fortune on my baby and nothing but legit licensed stuff goes near her, this includes and not limited to, fleebay, halfords, anything from the rice area of the world, if it aint stamped as legit then it aint going near my car no matter how simple it is, too much to loose.

However that said Im sure some peeps dont mind using other makes of stuff so in for a penny and all just not me.
