Thanks for all the input folks... every little helps

motorhomer... all of the web blurb I've read says that the ICN520 only covers Euro main routes... have you been able to get a street level update?


Think you might be right there sng, afaik the 520 only has major roads of europe.

The icn520 'premium' is the one with full euro street level mapping on cd. I have this version, you also need to budget for an extra sd card (512mb max) for copying from the cd.

Cheers Pete
Seems the icn520 premium is around the same price as the tom 700... the latter comes 'ready to go' and no phartin about Very Happy

Providing the 's' in sng doesn't cotton on to the hole in the credit card it looks like tom, tom, go Wink

sng,

I couldn't find a TomTom Go with UK, Spain and France mapping without going around £50 over your maximum price, which is why I didn't suggest it Smile

No problem Dave... it's the old budget/needs problem, until i had the feedback from the forum i was very much in the dark about gps

The only niggling worry now is will the T T 700 work OK under the luton cab....

Yup, it would be a sadder world if we bought things on a justified-need-at-minimum-cost basis. I freely admit to being a want-afford person Smile

Amazon was the best I could find for a GO + Europe maps. £385

Prices coming down all the time, when we were looking a few months back the 700 was £549.

If you want the go700 now, theres a good deal with currys at the moment - £399.99.
