Sat Nav advice

Tom tom... easy to use.. never let me down yet.

Depends very much on your budget. If you can afford it, go for a fixed install one (e.g. Kenwood with motorised screen - see mikeythemini's website). They are far more reliable than the portable ones, they stay routed (even through tunnels) and seem to reroute a lot quicker too.

I have the Kenwood in mine and, back to back with a Tom Tom user on the Italian Job, found it MUCH more reliable and useful.

I got the Road Angel Navigator, mega bucks at the time, mainly because it had the speed cameras..........it's crap. Most of the time I get where I'm going before it finds the signal, or it gets me to within a mile or two, then locks up. Having seen other people use Tom Tom, it seems much better.
Maybe it's just me being thick.:o

Have today seen a preview of a new Clarion model which comes out in about 4 weeks - very nice - even giving 3d pictures of the buildings

That looks a nice piece of kit Mikey.

Any idea what it's gonna retail at?

Hi John,

With all the cost the car is causing it will be a we while before I am ready to buy a Sat nav.

Thanks for the offer though.

I would absolute recommend getting the TOMTOM 720 Just got one the other day and its amazing! So impressed with it and also the bluetooth functionality with your mobile phone, top notch!
