Score 6.0/10

Anonymous verified purchaser

+ At the time I bought this, it was the only sat nav that could download speed camera positions and give live traffic data without a subscription or the need to clock up mobile call charges. It does what it says on the box.

- It is not clear how the traffic module adds on and works when you buy this. It looks like something built by Heath Robinson. It has one of those aerial wires that you get on a cheap stereo which you have to trail across the inside of the winscreen and stick on with suckers. It works - well the second unit did when I got it replaced - but it looks cheap and nasty and fills the dashboard with wires. If Trafficmaster can do it with a little "bump" aerial on their units, why can't Navman?
