I have a Navman sat nav which I use in the car, has given me brilliant service but after 12 years use and faithfull service at least, it is now coming to the end of its life and is going to be decommisioned (or put in the wife's car as a back up ) So, I am after some recommendations from the colective as to what might be a good up to date replacement? I am only going to use it in the car. I do not need loads of fancy gimmicks apps or wi fi connectivity and all that rubbish. I am not looking ot fork out a kings ransom for something I will only use a small percentage of. So...Any thoughts?
Google maps on you're smart phone I find is the best sat nav, always upto date, gives traffic delays etc Or another is wazes also very good for traffic and cameras
I am old fashioned in that I don't use my phone for anything other than phone calls, the occasional text and photo. My laptop gets used for internet and my sat nav is what I use to help me find my destination. Apart from the fact that I am old and have not grown up with the technology like many of you guys, I am also an IT numpty so the old adage of KISS (Keep it simple stupid) applies to me 100%. Hence the reason of going down the route of seperate sat nav.
I have a TomTom Go 6000. It's probably been replaced by TomTom for a newer model now but it fitted the bill for me with a big screen and traffic. Once I started to trust it for traffic alerts it saved me significant time spent in traffic. Not 100% of the time but enough to make it worth while.
Same here tomtom start 25 does exactly what it says on the tin, even used it driving around on holiday in Turkey with out any problems
Just to update. Invested in a TomTom Start 20 today. Bit slow to download and install the updates, but first impressions are very favourable Thanks for all your input, it is appreciated.
