Full UK map
Touch screen
Camera locations
Windscreen suction mount
Turn by Turn voice guidance
Full post code search
Car Charger
Full 3D moving maps
Automatic re-routing
multiple stops and save

So far iv looked at

Navman F30 ,F20 ,N40i
Road Angel Navigator 6000, 7000
TomTom Go 510

TO be honest i don't have a clue what ones are good.

The road angel ones u seam to have to pay £3.99 a month for subscription.

The tom tom ones seam to have different things like the TRAFFIC EDITION on Curry's site. So I'm all confused. Can any one help me out?

Thanks Jordan

You will find for around £200 that you should be able to source an end of line Garmin Nuvi 300, which will do all of the above, with free for life updates.....

ETA - the unit is really slim and fits easily into your pocket, plus you can look a complete IT Geek and continue your journey on foot to get right to the door of your target destination ( even changing to pedestrian setting so it will adjust the eta..)

MD, and anybody else - mounting ...

I find that the best place is the lower offside of the screen.

The unit ships with what at first glance looks a somewhat flimsy mount, but I assure you it's gives a better suck than a Dyson, and will hold the unit in place no matter what.

Also provided is a charge cable long enough to keep managed and out of the way.

ThIs arrangement maintains an ease of use in situ, which is another bonus.
