Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Ok, My Alpine Sat Nav stopped working when I went on my Highland drive. So with the price of a replacement disk (assuming it IS the disk) is £250 I figured I'd be as well to replace it with a tom tom type device that I can swap between my cars. So, my question is which one on the go at the moment is decent? I would ideally like speed camera location too. Any other gubbins you can't live without? Costco have a Garmin and a Tom Tom in just now (I can't remember the numbers) at less than £200. Looking for advice though. Costco is ideal as in a couple of years I can swap it for the latest model! shhhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennydies Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 If your phone is almost out of contract get an o2 orbit 2, has built in sat nav.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 I have an xda! I can get sat nav for that! Not sure about speed camera locations though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennydies Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 You can load camera locations into it. There is a website that you can get the list off here: http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Hmmmm, the cheap option! Could be decent enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennydies Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I have tomtom v6 on my phone which is exactly the same version as all the other tomtom units with the added ability of adding maps for use abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Was that expensive? Where did you get it? I guess cameras location can be added? Oh no, I'm turning into MB350Z except without text speak and with punctuation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 You mean you won't buy it and install it for me????? Can't believe I have to do it myself! I'm on the case! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Had a quick scan, upwards of 60 quid. Not bad. However, is it as good as a normal one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 TomTom one I bought last year for about £150 is now cheaper I think ? and has camera location and audible warning loaded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
