So, I'm keen to get my hands on some VCDS kit - so that I can scan and read fault codes on any cars which I might be looking to buy. Would also be handy thereafter - to save so many trips to my local garage.

Can someone point me in the right direction of the basics in terms of getting setup on this.

I've read around, and a few people back in 2014 were recommending the Lenovo X200 as a laptop to run the software. Is this still a good option?

And for the software itself - buy direct from RossTech? Do I go for the Lite (says only pre 2006 on the website).

Finally - the cable. Suggestions?

Think VCDS for dummies!
