do you have these tools and how much coverage do they offer on different models
once tested

do you have the acdp mini the one that doesn't require soldering if so which models have you manage to use it on so far

i have tools for reprogramming and updating ecus etc

mainly looking for key programming but ideally one that will do all models

i dont mind having extra functions such as cas and engine isn pairing and reading etc they will be a bonus

which tools do you have and use mostly for bmws

Buy bmw explorer or autohex, other tools is waste of time or just for simple jobs. I own vvdi prog, vvdi2, icom... BMW explorer there will be discounts for the month of December.
