Cheapest Sat-Navs available

peter.jennifer

So I've left myself just Christmas eve to buy a sat-nav and so this rules out online shopping. With just the high street stores to go to, where is the best deal on the 24th?

normal

Halfords are selling the Garmin nuvi 200 today for £99.
Curry's are selling another Garmin (370?) for £199
PC World are selling the TOMTOM 520 (music edition- ipod cable +£10 itunes voucher) for £199.

amazon are doing the garmin 250 with europe maps for £114.90, which is cheap anyway - (best price anywhere as far as I can see, and cheaper than the tomtom one v3 with europe maps- the garmin also has - apparently- better map coverage, and longer battery life, so I think it may be useful on holiday even if not travelling by car)

I went to amazon today to order it and found an offer on amazon -you can also order a leather carry case with it (normally about £11 ) for Free!!

Bargain! I have ordered one and am looking forward to spending a lot less time and petrol being lost :-)

I'd hold off buying a Garmin at the moment unless you know for certain it comes with 2008 maps. If your Garmin comes with version v9maps(released apx. Nov 2006) then you will have to pay approx. £50 to update to the 2008 maps.
In previous years Garmin have released new maps about November and have given a free update if you have recently purchased your satnav(last year anyone who bought after 1st Sept got a free update), but it is not yet clear if they will do that this time!!

We bought ours at the end of June and had the free update .
