Default Diagnostics Tool Help

Looking for a little guidance on a diagnostics tool setup. From my research on here I have determined that the best setup for my vehicle is as follows

VCM or Mongoose and IDS V130

From what I can tell both the VCM and Mongoose are discontinued. Can someone please confirm this assertion?
If not can someone recommend a supplier?
I am also looking for some guidance on where to find the files needed for IDS v130

Thanks

UnoJag, it does appear that the main line of cables is gone, but there are a few knock offs that may be worth a try. Here is one I found on ebay.

For Land Rover/Jaguar JLR SDD PRO V160 Cable Car USB OBD-2 Scanner Code Reader | eBay

As for the files, hopefully a member around here can help you out. I know the cable comes with V163 which would work on your car. The question then becomes what you need to do to ensure Version 163 works like you need. I find that is the harder thing to deal with and overcome.
