TomTom has launched a Top Gear version their TomTom GO LIVE.

It brings together a combination of the BBC's motoring series presenter Jeremy Clarkson giving directions, selected points of interest (POIs) that include Top Gear related track and raceway locations and Top Gear branding.

It also has a Stig mode. For those unfamiliar with the programme, Stig never utters a single word, so basically when Stig mode is chosen, the device instantly falls silent.

Many have said that they would like to shut Jeremy Clarkson up, some say that Stig has always been the man to do it!

The Top Gear edition, priced at £179.99, combines all the usual features of the TomTom GO LIVE with Top Gear branded start-up and shut-down screens and car icons. It also includes one year of TomTom's LIVE Services for free and, according to TomTom, features richer, more detailed maps.

I thought that Jeremy Clarkson hated SatNavs. Confused Amazing how people change their minds when money is involved! Wink

I'm looking forward to Clarkson promoting a range of new caravans. Thumbs Up

Somewhere there is a Clarkson voice too.

Not sure if it's out yet.

If you are able, I'd suggest editing that post to nothing.

Why? Driving a truck really is a hard job and I'm not just saying that to gain favour with truck drivers.

Sorry Kar98... it maybe an accurate quote of what Clarkson said, but that doesn't have to mean we as a forum or website want to repeat it.

So on reflection, I'll edit the posts.

They can supply all the voices they like but I still think none beats Tim.
