TomTom Go 520

After recently getting my brand spanking new TomTom 520 I thought I'd say a few words about how wonderful it is! The TomTom brand of satellite navigation is probably the most popular satellite navigation system around. This is not to say it is the best one, merely the most popular. Within the TomTom range there are numerous models and the price ranges from about £130 - £400. Obviously the more you pay then the more features you will get. These may include things like different maps for the rest of the world or the ability to link it to your phone. Satellite navigation systems are basically a tool that uses satellites to locate where you currently ...  Read the complete review

I bought this sat nav just over a year ago, I got it from Halfords for £199.99 which yes is very expensive but I had always wanted one of these & had been told that they were very good, better than all the other sat nav makes. They were right & I'm still glad I bought it.

I guess most sat navs have fairly ...  Read the complete review

I've not had my Go 520 long and decided to treat myself as my old satnav was well past it's sell by date. I spent a lot of time prior to my purchase researching the various brands and models, I wanted one that would allow me to use my phone handsfree and play mp3s/audiobooks and decided this was suited to my needs. Firstly, it works straight out of the box and comes complete with car charger, windscreen mount, dock for charging/updating via PC and software. My mobile phone was easy to set up and works well via bluetooth (Model: Samsung). Anyone thinking of buying this would be advised to check compatible models on the tomtom ...  Read the complete review
