    Default Which sat nav to buy?

    Since my vectra doesn't have sat nav fitted as standard i've decided to treat myself and buy one after i was recently impressed by my mates.The only problem i have is i don't know wheer to start. I quite fancy the Nav Man F20 anybody got any opinions or recommendations on the matter?

    I only use Garmin, if they go wrong, Garmin will get it sorted pretty much straight away, TomTom will leave you stranded for ages with a faulty unit

    Mine worked just fine! My Pocket PC TomTom may have taken me a different route to Andyvec's, but it got me to the hotel before you guys!

    lol - that's only 'cos you, and Matt/Maverick, didn't stop at the meet-up point at the services and steamed on down ahead of us! You both missed out on all the convoy and tracking shots I did of all the cars.

    I've got a tomtom one and its ace, so easy to use.
    I've loaded a few different voices on there, currently using Austin "Yeah baby!" Powers and have all the speed camera sites loaded on as POIs
    You can pick the new widescreen version up for about £150 now.
