Current Sat Nav (Carin) Data
« on: 04 February 2008, 16:36:11 »

Can anyone tell me what the most recent issue is of the mapping database?

I've decided it's time to teach her about the M6 toll road ......  and mine is 2003.....  but I don;t want to order the wrong one!  you know what these VX stealers and co are like... any chance to get rid of old stock on unsuspecting punters is taken like a shot !

Look at your disc to see if Teleatlas or Navteq, then contact them for compatibility.

Fleabay has it out of the vaterland for 30 quid plus shipping last I looked. New in wrapper.

If you find out for sure what the versions are I'd be interested to know. Mine is still '99  :-[ :'(

No discussion of sharing/obtaining illegally please.

Such was not my intent......  

I'm just trying to double check the issue "version" , as the manual keeps banging on about only vauxhall specific disks being valid....   and the website isn't entirely clear as to whether it's a generic or specific disk I get for my £76 quid....  

I'd get a bit miffed if they stuff it up and then refuse refund because the software has been opened.....  (as is common practice)

if you see what I mean...

I know what you were getting at, it was a reminder to others about all piping up saying I'll knock you off a copy

fair enuff Jaime...

I'll clarify...

Would anyone with the latest version that works in the Carin system as fitted to mini-facelift Elites(10/99) , please let me know the release date and version number you got....  so I can request the same damn thing....  I've been bitten by the vagaries of such things before...  

Being slightly weird and eccentric, I'd rather pay £76 than have a knocked off copy...  something to do with believing in IP rights, because I work in the Music and audio software industry....  and IP rights pay my wages...

while I appreciate that our strong forum community feeling might drive one to offer a copy, I'd personally be happier if you didn't , not even by PM or in code,  for the sake of the forum admin's headaches, as well as my conscience.

Ta muchly .

Those don't work IME. He'd get massive stick from me if that were the case. I'm not keen to spend 76 plus VAT, so I guess I'll just be following the UK signage that is carefully designed to make us pay more fuel taxes.  ::) >:(

I think Carin uses Teleatlas, but could be wrong.

my existing disk, is 2003 Navtech.

and i THINK this page has what I'm supposed to be getting....

http://www.navigation.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/Navteq-NavteqEurope-Site/en_GB/-/GBP/ViewStandardCatalog-Browse;pgid=31dce3Wq3QdSR0MxOotKzICB0000KVlTMyxY?CatalogCategoryID=JEgKCggRfO4AAAEOCM9tNDzd&ShowAllProducts=YES&ShowAllCategories=YES

anyone got an opinion?

i'm bothered because late 99/early 00 is changeover period from mini facelift to early facelift....   with, as i understand it, different Sat nav systems.....  thus the worry that I'll end up with the wrong one....

Correct, teleatlas for pre-facelift carin systems and navteq is for facelift sat-nav systems
