TomTom

Postby greenwoo » Fri Sep 10, 2021 5:42 pm

Think its time to invest in a new TTom...the recently acquired family wagon doesnt have inbuilt Nav, and using one of my older xxl's was 'fun' earlier; Bit slow to respond, and defo the maps showed their age.

So decided to splash out and get a newer version, which i'll use in the Kit and the family driver. But which to buy?
some of the models seem a tad on the pricey side......given that all i really need is;

ability to load tyre/web derived routes
responsive
easy to access/delete waypoints 'on the fly'
loud enough to hear in the Kit
big enough memory not to have to sod around loading EU maps/deleting others

ideas on a postcard to.......

Hi Mark,

Just got a second hand 5200 TT free map updates, wifi dont need to plug it in your pc to upload GPX files. It runs GPX not ITN but you just save them as that. TT uses Mydrive which is easy.

Oh yes..reminded by colin...
The go520 and go620 come with free map updates or free speed camera updates...or even better ,like mine, both the above.
I would pick a free map version if i had to choose ..as speed camera updates can be had for not a lot of £££
