Really could do with one of these and needed to buy one for ages. Needs to be able to read codes and reset them. Bonus points if its got some pc software etc.

2 main cars needs to read/reset is E36 318is 1999 and a Peugeot 206 2005.

Seen this one on the bay..

Any other recommendations?
 
I have the one in your link. Worked great on my mums 206cc. Peugeot isn't lised as a manufacturer in it (!) but I used the other category, Nd it read the code and cleared it fine.

Didn't work for my Nissan XTrail, but have read you need a Nissan specific be to read it anyway.
