Hi
I have a 510 effectively now 520 with the 2005st upgrade and also the upgrade of maps before the 2006 ones(last ones found out today they no longer sell maps for 510/520)
Several questions:
1. Can I update the navman (very happy with it, occasional user so battery OK and external mag mount pick up locates well) with other up to date maps from either another sat-nav company , say TomTom or mapping company and if so how feasible is this?
2. I now have 2 sets of complete navman discs both including Europe. Is it worth selling them on ebay as it says they are protected to the one user so could possibly be useless to a purchaser? This might fund the purchase of new software/maps etc?
3. Is it worth just starting all over again and trying to sell the 510 complete with the maps on ebay and if this is the best option, what do members suggest I go for. I use it mainly for finding business addresses in the UK most of which, if they are on private roads have not come up on the Navman software and for driving in Europe

Hi:

I bought new pan European Maps from Navman two weeks ago for £39. They are still available from Navman if you take a look at the following link.

Unfortunately they are out of stock and will not be getting any more, according to their customer service teams yesterday.

You can only use maps manufactured by Navman and intended for your model. You may find replacing it is the best solution but the price you get for your 510 may not be as much as you'd hope.

Thanks Darren.
So what should I go for??
I don't need blue tooth as the car is fully kitted out with this, but I do need Europe and ideally the UK business parks, which tend not to be on the navman software as they are on 'private land'.
Your advise would be appreciated.
Thanks
