    Maybe worth a punt at that price, although not sure if you would get any import tax on top?

    I wouldn't have thought so. I bought a headlight restoration kit from an international seller and didn't get charged anything.

    Ok I checked and there is no import duty on items below value of £135 just VAT @ 20% which works out £8 . . . for anyone who is interested . . .

    Just whether it will perform like the scan gauge as I've heard good things about these.

    Plus a £8 "handling fee" still not a bank breaker though, when compared to a scan gauge.

    It's your money. I'd be interested to see how you get on with it.

    Definitely, it looks great installed in the dash and for that amount of money it's worth a pop. It's almost cheaper than sending my one off for the firmware upgrade that it so desperately needs!

    I know someone that has one of these and he says it works perfectly.

    Wouldn't suprise me if the scangauge was made in a Chinese factory for £30

    me neither . . . but since I don't know anything about/or how to use these guages felt it would be easier to get answers from you guys about the scangauge . . .
