Black Box Solutions do Single and Multi-Vehicle Licence computer based units as well as a unit that allows it to be used in a restricted standalone mode.
There are a couple of other units ("Hawkeye" being one) that allow standalone multi-vehicle use, these appear to be flavour of the month at the moment (price wise), others will be along to expand on their use and price, but the starting price for any of the diagnosics is around 350-00 GBP+, up to over a 1000.00 GBP.

Only the engine ECU is OBD compliant (uses EOBD)
All the other P38 systems use a bespoke protocol....

The Faultmate is professional standard and covers everything on the P38, Nanocom covers almost everything and is cheaper and does not need a laptop.

Keith, have you a nanocom now? I'm thinking of buying one, am I right in thinking that you can buy extra vehicles ( such as disco TD5 ) for the same unit? Just have to swap memory card? Or would I need another unit? Ie one nanocom for p38 and another one for disco TD5?
Cheers
Nanocom services several vehicles all you need to do is get one then add vehicles to it. You then after parting with around £45.00 get an unlock code for the new addition. Not locked any one vehicle Vin.

No I don't have a Nanocom so not sure what it covers apart from the P38 at the moment as I haven't looked recently

Think there's more support for the p38 with the nanocom than the l322.
As far as I can see the faultmate MSV is the best for the l322, I want one but can't face the £900 price tag !! That's locked to one vehicle !! It's a con !

Not when you consider the development and ongoing support costs it's not
