You can spend about 100 quid on a TomTom and it comes with full Europe maps, don't see why you have to fart around with  loading CD's for map data.  :-\
As I keep saying, last years TomTom units are not a match for a 15yr old CARiN.


Any factory fit in any modern car is going to be dated in a few years, and will be difficult to change due to the way they are integrated. This situation will only get worse.

The NCDC isn't so bad. Could be quicker when using the map display, and definately needs an Aux In. The phone, if fitted, is "functional", but offers a full power setup, so grabs a signal where handsets can't. Other than that, its a good all round system. That said, I'm not a big postcode fan, having had TomTom screw me over more than once with postcodes - I always go address now.

I've been getting a lift in one while I'm working in Lisbon this week. Whenever I'm sat in the back, I end the 30 min ride feeling sick. The rear door windows seem tiny and my head is on the roof lining. One good thing though is the quality of voice calls via the bluetooth link with your phone. It's excellent!

Never sit in the back whilst I'm driving it ::)

It is very cramped in the back for adults :(
