I've got one on my Lexus, which was part of the original spec for that model.
Overall I find it disappointing because:
a. It only displays Parish names, rather than the name of the village which I'm passing through. I couldn't care less about the Parish name - I want to know how the map relates to the name on the village signpost in front of me.
b. I gather that there are modern Satnav systems with which you have only to enter a UK Postcode in order for you to get there. That makes a lot of sense.
c. The instructions are a lifetime study in themselves, over 60 pages. By the time you've read them, still less understood them, you could get to several destinations by just reading an AA Road Atlas.
But my car is now 4 years old and all these gadgets move on. So my advice would be to get Halfords or whoever to give you a thorough demonstration and to satisfy yourself that it really would be a worthwhile investment. Good luck!
Tony.
