tom tom thinks outside of belfast city centre doesn't exist.garmin is excellent for ni coverage.p.s halfords charge about £80 more than anyone else.

I got the Garmin C310 from Savastore but I think the C510 is the equivalent model now.

If I remember right they talked about a delivery surcharge for NI but I didn't get charged it.

The C310 has been brilliant with even unpaved roads being marked.

I got my Garmin 310 in Halfords @ Boucher around about April. I think it was £199 but it may have been on offer. Don't know how much it is now.

Hi I know nothing about this ... my dh has shown some interest and I wonder if anyone has used one in NI.. what they recommend and what they say to aVOID, also where to buy and how much/litle to spend. Most of travelling is in and around Belfast ... but totally new area due to job change ... in the rest of Ni he usually relies on me to direct so this could be a new era?????

Garmin have the best maps for Northern Ireland (and all of Ireland) - avoid TomTom for local use. This is a good deal http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/product/seo/003552

I have found CoPilot to be great, shows the most obscure out of the way places. I signed a contract with TMobile and got a pda phone with copilot built in.

avoid Teleatlas maps if you want to use gps in NI. Natec are the best over here at the minute.
