TomTom XL Classic
Generally a good product but there are drawbacks. It only has a small internal memory and, without an SD card slot, this means the option to upgrade maps is complicated and time consuming. The other weak point is the manual, which shows you how to enter one address and leaves you to discover by trial and error the rest of the machine's features. The last minus point with this sat nav is the short battery life - 1 hour 40 minutes tops. On long journeys you have to have this machine connected. Sti...

A really useful thing
Went from London to an isolated farm near Wetherby that was at the end of 2 miles of a private no-name road. The TomTom guided me accurately to the house on the farm. If I had tried using a map, I would have wasted a lot of time and petrol finding this place.From the farm, my friend and I went to another address in her BMW that had a built in satnav. I took my TomTom too to compare. The TomTom was far superior in the clarity of the instructions both on-screen and voice. On the way back, th...

A bit Hit and Miss
Have had this product for some 6 weeks and recently took in on holiday to Wales. Calling at Reading Services on the M4 it completely lost the plot and again at the same location on the return (eastward) journey. So much so this time that it failed to locate a signal miles after I had left the service which meant that it could not direct me from the M4 onto the A329M at Wokingham. Had to completely re-set the whole thing. Once done it picked up a strong signal and worked fine (fickle !)In W...

Great Buy.
I bought this jsut before a driving holiday to The Lake District and it was superb!!It made the driving almost enjoyable and never gave me a moments indecision.The Easymount was great-especially as I bought a dashmount instead of using the windscreen which I would recommend highly.The only minus point is the instruction book which is not really instructive.All in all a brilliant satnav at a brilliant price--thanks Amazon.

Great
I recently used the TOM Tom for a trip to Newport in Wales and trusted it for getting me off the M4 and to my venue. Apart from one roundabout that was now a set of traffic lights it was first class.Use it a lot of my time and had no problems. It fits to the screen well and folds away in to the case I purchased fine.

TomTom Classsic Excel
Very good self navigation product. The voice guide is strong and clear. The product has capability to update route maps, on line, and to store several useful locations around the UK, should you need to go to these in the future.The product is very easy to use.I will be happier if it sticks permanently to the windshield without occassionally falling off, especially during journeys over bad, uneven terrains.This is no fault though of Amazon.As a trade facilitator, this com...

Not full postcode as stated in literature
Great product unless you need to navigate to a location which doesn't have a house number. On my old tomtom you could bypass the request for a house number but on this one you have to put it in. Full postcodes only cover around 8 houses and so tomtom should present house number for example (189-193) but instead it often offers 2-502 to select from. this can put you a mile or more from the actual postcode you typed in. By the way, this isn't an issue about downloading a patch. The full postcode d...

First Sat Nav
Put off buying one of these for years.Then I took a journey with my boss using his Tom Tom One.As I do a lot of driving with my job I realised straight away what a huge advantage it was to have a navigator in the car with me.Very simple to use and a vast array of additional useful information over and above basic directions ie time of arrival,distance,speed cameras,speed limit,speeding warning sound etc.Bought the XL because it was only a little more than the basic model and had a bigger s...

sat nav for the bewildered
I am the world's best at getting lost, even when I've been somewhere a couple of times, and my problems are now over. The product is easy to use and compact but has all the information I need. I am extremely satisfied with the product and the swift delivery.
