96 C280 Code Scanner?

Would it be a great dianostic enhancment for me to invest in a scanner for the 96 C280?

What scanner is recommended. There is a OBDll scanner by Actron that is about $150. Would this scanner do for general dianostic work on the car?

Where is the dianostic plug located for the scanner on the c280?

Thanks

The Federal OBDII plug is under the driver's side dash. If you look above the footwell, you'll see a small cover, you just open this, and the plug is there.

Mercedes diagnostics/CAN is accessed through the round plug in the engine compartment (passenger side rear).
