Gents,
Sorry to trouble you...I tend to spend my time tooling about in the Medion Section...I'm looking for a bit of advice.
I'm looking to invest in a New SatNav, with TMC & (possibly) Bluetooth.
Just what should I be looking for in terms of spec'?..or better still what portable device (for the car) would you reconmend- for a budget of (say) £200.00.
Apologies to the Mods if I've posted this in the wrong section...I'm a bit thick!
Kind Regards

With all respect I'll move this to the New Products / Buyer Advise section which seems more appropriate. I also suggest a more meaningful title such "Buying new Sat Nav - which one?" |

As for which one? Well the "Big 2" are Garmin and TomTom.
Garmin allow you to compare products here .
Change the locale to United Kindom at the top, then you'll find most of the Nuvis with TMC have a xxxT models number - except the 660FM and the 710 and 770. For BlueTooth is looks like you'll be looking at at least a 310T - which can be had for £120 -£200
Also look for models that feature the High-sensitivity receiver in their spec list.
