Whatever you get be sure to set yourself up in preferences as a car,and not a bike.
Certain Taxi driver in Cardiff relying on sat-nav tried to go through a field on the way to Caerphilly,he even asked the passenger to open the gate for him--luckily the passenger rang base to complain.
I should point out the driver wasnt...erm.....from around here.

I've got a TomTom One which is fine.  I pop it in between dash and windscreen so as not to bother with the stick on mount.

Speed camnera warnings are great, but I have still to this day not worked out how to update them - there were some temporary cameras on the M4 near here which have long since gone that it always warns me about..

Completely agree. I have the Omega CID for the Siemens NCDC 2013 and the latest NavTeq CD. (This now takes postcodes!).

Where did you get this map CD from

I'd be interested as well .. having just been told in the other sat-nav thread that there is no postcode nav for the NCDC   ...

Me to - mines marked up 2007/2008, but the file dates are June 2007. It can't do postcodes.

Sorry folks, I've now tested the CD I was given and it doesn't do postcodes after all.

Talking bolox as usual.  :-X
