Inexpensive interface for newer CAN vehicles ?

That's exactly my point of view : buy the tools instead of buying time in
the shop. I have here a lot of tools that were used once or twice for a very
specific job, but they are mine now. And since I'll stay in the VAG family
for the foreseeable future, then 250$ is not that much. And it brings
friends with problems in your driveway (for me, it's a nice type of
problems...)

For a DIY, though, it is a bit of $$. Probably not too many people on here
drop $250+ for tools on a regular basis.

But, Mark is are dead on. It's downright cheap compared to just about
anything else out there!! And, if you look at the expense of a couple of
trips to the shop vs DIY, you will recoup the cost in no time.
