Not sure if this is of interest (or any good).

UK Hotdeals has posted as one of the daily deals a OBDII bluetooth diagnostic tool.

I've got something similar, there's loads of them on ebay. It works, there's not much more to be said about it, really.

Obviously you need a computer/tablet/smartphone to connect it to.

Reading the comments its the same one as Ebay

Yeah, I'm sure they're all made in the same factory in China and just shoved in different boxes.

I got a little one something like this:

and just leave it plugged in. My phone syncs to it when I get in the car and I get a nice extra dashboard with various pieces of information on it plus some data-logging.

Am definitely interested in getting one of these

Would this http://www.amazon.co.uk/ELM327-Bluetooth-Wireless-...

work in a 2010 Mini via bluetooth on an iphone 5 - is there any additional software i'd need to get?

Apparently (I've never tried myself) iPhones don't support Bluetooth properly, so you'll probably need a wireless network one.
