"To save Mr 1905 and Mrs 1905 from any future car journey bust ups I have decided to invest in a Sat Nav."
It would be a lot easier to drink vodka on every car journey, let her drive and not only would it be her fault if you got lost, you'd be so drunk you wouldn't give a fcuk!
One not to get is the Road Angel Navigator 7000 which I have, voice instructions say go one way but route on map says go another all very confusing, but I suppose it is a woman's voice tellling you one thing then pointing in a different direction. :-)
On the up side it is the best Speed camera Detector on the market bar none which is what I bought it for.

Not sure that I am going to get away with that Russ, but thanks for the advice ..............
I'm completely with you on this one, Salad - would much rather look at something and know where I'm going than rely on a machine to get it right...and we don't have that many roads in Scotland to worry about anyway!

Except that the map of France takes you down roads which haven't yet been built!!! Happened to me last summer.
Seriously though I've got the earlier Tom Tom 700 (with 3gb harddrive). It's bloody good and the later verions are even better. Have a look on Ebay, theres plenty being offered.
Tom Tom 910 is ok but if it goes wrong there returns policy is crap...no replacement and you can wait months so I am told.
Got the Garmin nuv 660 fm...... the fm jobby is like a hands free kit, it picks up spare radio channel and through blue tooth does your phone...plus if it goes wrong you get a temp replacement..Halfords at mo got a deal 299.00

my father uses a satnav and always ends up taking stupid routes!

YOU NEED TO TURN THE PAGES TILL YOU GET TO THE RIGHT ONE, LOOKING AT A MAP OF MID WALES IS NOT PARTICULARLY USEFUL TODAY
Oi, I got us there didn't I, with premium parking too...
