in It's gone, but was it any good?
This offer is supposed to be for people registered with Pipeline card (fuel discount card). I received it with this morning's pipeline update e-mail.

If you want to take up this offer then I suggest you register with PIPELINE. It's free and could save you money on your fuel when up and running.

The Navman 530 is normally £299. with this deal you get the Navman 530 PLUS Euro mapping for £239 PLUS free delivery!

Offer ends 30th June.

Review HERE.

You have to purchase through this link to get this offer.

Edit: Upon closer inspection it seems that the 'Free Euro mapping' offer is a bit spurious as you get that as standard with the Navman 530 anyway. Also the free delivery is also naughty as you get free delivery on the Navman 530 on the Navman site too!. It's still cheaper than anywhere else as far as I can see however.

    I am interested in buying one but have not used a navman before. I have used TOMTOM before and found it good. Is the above just as good and is it worth buying??

    It uses the Sirf Star III chipset for receiving the GPS signals. This is the latest chipset and is very sensitive.

    It's also the chipset built into my Mio A701 PDA/Phone/Sat Nav. It definitely picks up signals indoors. I've had it since March and I haven't lost my GPS lock once, not even in city centres or dense forest.

    What do you think of the 701 as a pda, what software do you run?

    Does this GPS give you the option of instant rerouting like the tomtom versions if you come across a traffic jam?

    Peeps,
    can anyone who oenes one of these specific systems, tell me how you mount it in the car.

    Do they come with a sucker system to stick to the windscreen, and if so, does it work, or does it drop £240 worth of kit under the pedals at a critical time?

    Does it come with nothing, in which case I would need to buy a third party bracket/holder to fit to the dashboard?

    Do you just stick it in a cubbyhole and use the voice part of it after programming in your route??

    Thanks in advance

    Anybody looking to buy a sat nav at the moment has to seriously consider this offer 'cos it's amazing!!

    You are getting over £400 worth of stuff for £240, and Navman sat navs are definetly one of the best GPS systems out there. The ICN 530 is a brand new unit only released several weeks ago. Wherever you look be it Tesco, Amazon or anywhere else you are going to be paying around £300, and that won't be with the european maps worth £100!

    I think Ben Scammell (founder of Pipeline) has pulled off a great deal for people here. I was expecting the offer to be something like £20 off a £250 system, but this is far better than anything like that. Great deal!:)
    The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing:)
