Default Icar soft LR V4

Hi all.
As the owner of a X308 XJR 4.0 and a Range Rover l322 TDV8 (plus a 1965 Daimler) im pretty much reliant on a home scan tool.
I have an old icar unit that's pretty rubbish and was thinking of trading up to the LR V3 at around £165.
on the website I sore the LR V4 touch screen that comes pre loaded with JLR and you can add 2 more marks for £201.

My thinking is for the extra cash the V4 should be a much better unit, and on paper it is, but are they using customers to sort out its issues 🤔

Trust pilot reviews of the companies after sales service are horrendous!

Does anyone have any experience with the V4, or the after sales support ?

Or should I stick with the V3 as it gets good reviews, especially for older cars like mine.

Thanks guys.

Sorry not much help BUT we do have a large and still active scanner thread?

I have tested LR 3.0 in my car. It does not work great. It does not read plausable information from gearbox or hvac etc.
