Rating: - want the latest satnav?heres how to get for a fiver
Christmas is coming so save your cash! Why purchase something you can get for a fiver.
Go to satnavs.consolegifts.net and sign up. Complete ONE offer- I would recommend Gala Bingo (you know, the one Sharon Osborne advertises for on tv),as this is cheap and fun (and you might win some money in the process!). If you really don't want to spend, there is a free Lovefilm trial.
All companies are well known so there is no risk involved- give it a go! I got my Ipod, satnav and wii this way, so don't miss out.
I was sceptic once but now I am SO glad I gave it a chance. BBC approved this system on their Newsnight programme a while back.
Rating: - No frills, but it works
I paid just over £80 for my Nuvi (including postage) and I could not be more pleased. Yes, it is basic compared to some, but it works and is simplicity itself to operate.
The windscreen mount is first-class - solid as a rock and easily removed without leaving a tell-tale mark.
For the money I doubt this could be bettered and even included European mapping.
Highly recommended.

Rating: - Garmin Nuvi 250 Satellite Navigation System With European Mapping
I'm caught between a rock and a hard place with this. Overall I am pretty pleased with it. But sometimes it can't make a distinction between 'turn left' and 'keep left'. For example, on a jagged bend it will tell you to 'turn right', even though you are following the same road. And instead of 'turn left' onto a minor road it will tell you to 'keep left.' And sporadically tries to send you the wrong way up one way systems! But functional overall, as long as you acknowledge it doesn't know all there is to know.
The plus points:
Easy to use. Good value - compared to other UK & Europe options very reasonably priced. Easy navigation - on screen details is good and voice commands clear. Great built in info.
Rating: - Disappointing
Used it twice on long journeys and let down both times. Once it was over a quarter of a mile out on the address and the second time it navigated me on to a minor road and then kept saying recalculating before freezing. People I know with a tomtom seem to have less trouble. On shorter journeys it has been more accurate. This is my first sat nav and I am not impressed.
