    Fifth Gear on Channel 5 did a test of the Tomtom one v, the garmin i3, the becker, and the navamn 520
    The Tomtom one won hands down!
    Good enough for me!

    I am looking for a satnav with full Uk maps and at least major european roads.
    Halfords are doing the Medion PNA 100 for just under £200. Is it worth going for it or are other systems better/ more value for money? Thanks in advance, Thomas

    I have found this thread that basically says don't buy it because there's no backup.

    To be fair, if I bought this unit I would upgrade the GPS software to tom tom 5.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    If anyone is interested in the latest kit using SiRFStar III GPS and WM5 check the Mio A201 out clove technology there is also the A701 with moble phone coming out next year. Looks great but not cheap at the moment.

    The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket. :rolleyes:

    Mmm not that good to laugh at people who have bought there loved ones a tomtom sat nav for christmass. Well i have a tomtom one and Manchester appears to be north of england and south of scotland so no apparent problems there then. £220 out of pc world picked it up along with 2 others for christmass gifts on monday. I actually already had the latest Adli (Medion) sat nav. But i took all 3 back got my £220 back for each of them then drove up and collected my tomtom's. I have installed the latest speed cam files and celebrity voices and customised the warning sounds. An excellent peice of kit IMHO.
