What Sat Nav ?

[Jordan210]

Right as Sat nav is now what i will be getting. I need help on picking what one to get

I have about £200 or so to spend on one.

Preferably id like it to have

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

Whatever you get Jordan, make sure you can enter multiple stops and save them.

You'd be amazed how many do not have this facility, and if they do you might not be able to save all your hard work - it's essential for keeping on route on Mini runs.

I have a TomTom One Euro version, and it has everything you want, and will slip into your pocket too. The GB ones are available at Sainsburys for £180 nowadays.

I will add that to my list .

GB ONE
its only 153.04 on Halfords site so could save me a few pounds

Its all confusing

I have the TT 510 Jordan and it's great - also came with free camera updates

[*Vikki*]

TT all the way, a ONE GB edition does evrything i need and what you have on your list

[Goonery]

TT One has everything you need, It must be good as I have the original version and I'm not interested in upgrading so the new version must be brilliant

[AndyParker]

has anyone heard anything about the snooper syrius? was contemplating getting that but having seen my mates tom tom in use today i'm strating to reconsider

[Jordan210]

I like the ONE and 510 at the moment they look good.

Both look smart. 510 is taking my fancy a bit more at the moment. Could be as its bigger and smarted

On tom tom site it says that the ONE does not have "Preinstalled safety cam database" so id have to install this my self ?

[Harpo]

The 510 is very bulky, and carrying it around would not be that cool.

I allways have a bag on me. So i supose thats all right then. Or could lock it in glove box. Not the best idea but does a job

Jordan, the people have voted for the one, you have the technical ability to use Tom Tom home application and install safety cams as point of interest you dont need Ipod sync or any of the other Phat ware applications that come with the 510, so what are you waiting for

But jordan being hte tecnological guinus of the world would then have to figer out how to put speed cameras on to the TOM TOM and also buy a USB wire for it . With the 510 its all there so i cant brake it

convergence is the way foward so what ever has the most junk in it wins haha

I will pop down to currys or someware later and have a look at them both.

So you decided for the Sat Nav over the spots!

As prev mentioned Tom Tom, the 510 is a good unit, you will get the unit cheaper from ordering online, don't go to Halfrauds, they will only rip you off!
Ebay is a good source for Sat Nav units, try buy from a trusted Ebay Shop though.

I got mine from here Jordan - pretty cheap & quick delivery

[Rakey]

Why not get a head unit with nav built in?

thats what I am going for, as I can't be bothered with all that taking it in an out of the car
