Best code reader for L494 / Range Rovers

As above guys got a couple little niggles that I want to code read on my L494 and Ive been looking at purchasing a decent code reader for a while as it helps with diagnosing issues on the family cars before you need to send them to the garage etc.

Ive been looking at an Autel MaxiCom Pro - Just wondering if anyones had experience with Autels and used them on a RR and do they give the same functionality as GAP IID tool, I would mostly use it on my RR but would like to diagnose issues on other vehicles so not sure which route to go down.

My lad has an Autel, it is bt and has a screen like a tablet. Unlike a GAP IID, you can use it on all the vehicles it has software for. I think the IID can read other vehicles but needs a licence to reprogramme etc.

The GAP Iid tool can be used on most Land/Range Rovers with slight limitations, you can only make changes to the Car Configuration Files of the vehicle it is registered to for instance, other models can be registered to it for around £25.
BEST TOOL AVAILABLE, you will never regret buying one, I have had one from them first being available and it’s paid for itself 10 times over and they fetch around £350 second hand. The service from GAP is unrivalled, I had a problem with my D3 at 6-30 one Saturday evening that I couldn’t solve, I contacted Pat@GAP he asked me to connect my laptop via the tool to the Disco and within minutes it was up and running, unbelievable I can't praise them enough Bow down

I tried an Autel, I wanted to add another vehicle and I couldn’t make contact with them! the license for extra vehicles only lasts a year!
