    Hi,
    I'm in the market for a sat nav gps for the car, there seems to be a minefield of units out there, for 1 positive comment there are 2 or 3 negative points on each unit. Can anyone advise me on the best value for money unit with the most up to date mapping, I need it to show me low classified roads in Mayo as I deal with a lot of farms etc and I want to be able to input multiple stops to my customer locations into it.
    Thanks Muchly :confused:

    Look for something with Itinerary Planning on it and you'll probably find Garmin have better maps for Ireland than TomTom

    whatever one you buy make sure it has navteq maps and not teleatlas. navteq have the most up to date maps available at the moment.
    have a look at this for a start http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.aspx?sku=341786

    Thanks for your help, I've ordered the Garmin Nuvi 710T from Expansys.ie, looks like its hopefully going to do the job for me.
