it's not a handheld code reader bud, it's a usb to rs32 converter that you plug into your laptop/pc then you use whatever software you want to remove mil, abs etc etc
Just search elm327 obd2 into ebay and you'll get loads of results, all do the same thing tho

get a 327 mate, 323 is only for a certain protocol.. i think CAN something... 327 is more universal and should work perfect

323 or 327 will be fine with a 3 plug car.

That's all you can do to Saxos with OBD1/ 2.
Need the proper Pug/ Cit daignostic geaer for airbag, ABS faults etc.
