    With Xenons the DRL menu is enabled from factory

    It'll be in Exterior Lighting in your MMI.

    It would be great to get an idiot's guide to use VCDS. I am seriously considering of getting one off the ebay.

    Anything (well anything claiming to be VCDS ) off eBay will be pirated. Official resellers in the UK are Gendan, Ilexa, Marshalls and Vtech

    Ross-Tech: Distributor List

    The other stuff (the £10 readers) aren't VCDS.
    2018 (2017MY) S3 2.0TFSI Sportback Quattro S-Tronic in Nano Grey Metallic.

    Black Edition, Reversing camera, Parking System Plus, Hill Hold, Super Sports seats, heated, Dipping exterior mirrors, B&O, Advanced Key, Magnetic Ride, Red Calipers, 19x8J 5-V-Spoke wheels in matte titanium.

    Not really as you're getting the extra connectors with that listing plus its new.

    They usually stop around £220-240 mark for a used genuine cable with no extras.

    Todays prices seem to be £263 and (from Gendan) £306 with the additional cables,

    eBay does tend to make people buy on the assumption it's cheaper...

    So it is! I must've read a post this week and the price was wrong on it as turpal (I think) got one from an authorised supplier for £350-ish including the extra cables.
