Have just got the evesham 6200 from Asda, £99, because I want a touch screen. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=300535
Official Specs

I'll be taking the ICN330 back to tesco on monday unless anyone on here wants it. (Send PM). North Manchester area.

I realise offering stuff is against board rules, but I'm trying to do someone a favour, and also avoid schlepping back to Haslingden to take the unit back.

Hi All - I got one of these Evesham 6200 Sat navs.
Full UK maps, really cool 3D view, Great POI selection, speed camera alerts with free updates for 6 months, great GPS fix times for such a value product and it looks great and fits in my pocket - Get yourself one of these NOW for £99 this is just a perfect Xmas present.:A

I have read through all these pages and i am still none the wiser.

I promised i would buy MrJudi a sat nav system for christmas to replace his very used and now unreliable Garmin Streetpilot sat nav. He works all round the country and driving from city to city is a big part of his job hence the need for a good navigation system. We have been to Halfords and got lost in a sea of options and got somewhat confused in the process.

Now what he needs which we havent got from our old Garmin is a full postcode to post code look up. At the moment he has to input the address. He uses the Points of Interest too (mainly when we go on holiday but its handy to have). He has a seperate speed detector thingy that sits on his dashboard that picks up laser and radar so unless i could purchase a unit that can combine the sat nav with GPS, i wouldnt be looking at purchasing a combined unit. We really only need it for driving in the UK, anything that does further than that would be nice, but certainly not essential at this time.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where to go from here cause i am a bit out of me depth.:o

Remember if you leave your sat nav in the car, along with your house keys, its a quick way of someone robbing you very easily. Top tip...dont store your car keys and house keys on the same keyring, always remove the satnav from the car.

Just purchased the Garmin Street Pilot C510 online from Currys using 10% off code along with the free postage code, total cost £134.10. This sat nav won best buy in last months What Car Gadget supplement, it has touch screen and accepts post code, hope this helps.
