Title: Re: Sat Nav advice Post by: 150aceboy on January 17, 2010, 09:14:08 PM Tom Tom's are great Ian, i bought a different make last year, when i got it home i found it did'nt accept postcode search, so make sure when you buy one it does fella, makes things a lot easier on times, i know the Tom Tom ones accept postcodes.

Title: Re: Sat Nav advice Post by: Legacy Hunter on January 17, 2010, 10:57:44 PM My car at the moment has built in sat nav but if i ever have a car without one i always buy a Garmin as I think they are the best but everyone is different that is just what i go for , I have tried a road angel, tomtom, navman but i always go back to Garmin
