I'm thinking of buying an OBD scanner to read my 993s fault codes etc. Anyone else done this - if so any recommendations?

I'm looking at this one

But if anyone has tried others please let me know.

I do about 6-8000 miles a year so car only gets checked out once a year. Which means a fault could be lurking there for almost a year without me knowing. (In which case you might wonder why I care! - better not to know!, well because I believe I currently have a MAF fault so may be under powered[;)])

Thanks
 
Hurray - a message from our illustrious leader.[:)]

Maurice, that would be great if it's able to run (I saw other message) - hope you can make it, but I'm sure everyone will understand you making a decision on that at the last minute.
