    sat nav p2

    Ok i been looking about and i think a narrowed my sat nav list down a bit, out of these, which ones are proven to be best or better.

    is there a clear winner out of these?

    TomTom GO 730 Sat Nav £214.98 halford

    Garmin Nuvi 255W EU/Case/Home Charger £174.97 halford

    TomTom GO 920 Traffic Sat Nav £199.93

    TomTom GO 530 Traffic Sat Nav £199.93


    Which one is the best on market would you say out of these, mainly looking for.
    • Can find alternitive routes
    • Got speed camera positions
    • Easy to use and good maps
    • can give info about road closeurs or problems and find alternitive route to aviod

    Halfords is not the cheapest place to get a sat nav from, have a go on store demo models if you can then buy online and save a lot of money. My garmin nuvi 250 (europe) was in the sale for £99.99 then it got pointed out on here it was on the CPW site for £69.99.

    is what I'm getting for Christmas.

    (better spec than the one at £175 in your Halfords links - the 255WT has lifetime traffic announcements / diversions)

    Re: sat nav p2

    compared to the530 T what does this garvin then lack, also the map system i hear in the garvin isnt as good as the ones TOMTOM uses also the set-up and ease of use isnt supposed to be as good, thus why it seems tomtom seem to dominate the uk market from what i can see and read.



    Just wondering if anyone found any reveiws( reliable ones and non biased) with the

    TOMTOM 530 T and this garmin 55WT?
