Rosstech Vagcom is not just a computer (required) and the software...it's the license (required)...won't work without it. Most who have the license have liftime support (updates, etc..) so have NO reason to sell the essential part.

what kind of laptop are you going to use? serial port or usb port? XP, Win7?

I have an OBDII serial

Check out this and dependent upon what you want to do with the car. I just use it to reset and program some stuff, nothing major.

Look around ebay, there were a few cables that were for sale recently, original ones from ross-tech, not a fake ones.
