This item was purchased for a holiday to the uk which we will be embarking on shortly. I purchased this one because it came loaded with overseas maps. Product does work well when operating, directions and lane sellection is very good also has a large choice of P.O.I.s that can be added if needed, voice is well spoken and easy to understand. Downside. Takes too long to start up.the other day i had travelled 5 ks before it connected to satellites. Unit is mounted on windscreen and signal is not being blocked, i have tried starting it up out of the car in the open but still takes ages. it has the latest maps feb 2012 but last week i was at maroochydore in an area that has been there for a long time near BCF and Qld transport and the GPS did not show any streets just my car in a blank space but still showed the motorway and other streets nearby. Hope this is just an isolated case. My daughter has a garmin and i also have one for work i find these units to be very fast on start up compaired to the tom tom also the garmin starts as soon as you turn on the car the tom tom you have to start manually every time. I purchased this unit because of the overseas maps already loaded and hopefully thay will work with no problems when i need them. I cannot recommend this product due to exccesive delay in start up time.Read full review
I bought this Tom Tom as an update on my old one. It was not much more money than buying a download of maps and gave me a larger screen and more features as well. It is easier to read than my old one with lanes shown clearly and speed restrictions, red light and speed cameras. I also prefer the mounting system on this model. Not so inclined to drop off as my old Tom Tom. This model does not have blue tooth, not a problem if your car does. I can only compare it to the previous Tom Tom.
Naturally I bought this Item because I required one. This Item is probably the most User Friendly GPS you could wish for, it also sends alerts for Speed Cameras etc. I beleive that the extremely true benefit of this Item is that it displays the speed you are travelling at and that alone is worth it's weight in gold. i have also noted that it also displays the speed limit that is applicable to where you are and that avoids those naughty instances when you do not see the Speed Sign. I beleive that every Vehicle should have Sat Navagation, ie: a Tom Tom.
This is the second GPS I have bought via eBay and both have been excellent. No guarantee with either, but they are both new and quality so expect the normal life span out of them. On eBay I get a much cheaper deal than paying retail, plus of course, the thrill of the hunt for the bargain.
I bought this Tom Tom bcause my old one [died} The unit is very good but what one is not told by the seller is when you go to update speed cameras Tom Tom also applies a new application update which will disable the unit and you have to buy new maps. After buying a new map I have had no problems.
