TomTom One XL Europe

I bought the TomTom One some eight months ago. I had some experience of using a navigation system as my previous car had one built in and I became quite dependent on it. Cost I had bought a new Audi A4 sometime in 2003 and remember paying around 1000 Pounds extra for the built in sat nav system. It was a bad decision and would recommend you not to make the same mistake. But for my recent car, I was determined to do the research and then buy a Sat nav system, so I spent two days going around all the shops and searching the net to compare different Sat nav products and prices. I finally settled on the TomTom One because I personally found it to be the ...  Read the complete review

I was given the Tom Tom One XL as a gift to upgrade me from the misery of my old Packard Bell and I've never looked back! The appearance of this Tom Tom is really stylish - the wide screen is easily readable and perfect to glance at quickly while driving. The display is clear and well set out, showing the distance to the next instruction, the expected time of arrival and distance to destination, while displaying the map clearly in the top two-thirds of the screen. You can choose from a number of different colour schemes and display options and customise to suit your needs. The functions are more than adequate, and allow for personal touches such as ...  Read the complete review

For me driving is always a bit worrying if I don't know where I'm going and I've lost count of the number of times I've ended up lost or missed a turning because whoever is supposed to be directing me forgets to tell me to turn! But now I feel as though a weight has been lifted from my shoulders everytime I step into my car knowing I have my TomTom who will tell me exactly how to get there! First of all the TomTom One XL has a larger then average screen, this makes seeing the map and where your going a lot easier and clearer as well as using the touch screen more simplier as your not fiddling around trying to press a function which are all crammed ...  Read the complete review

I brought this as a gift for my mother last christmas as she doesn't often drive to far and, like me, is slightly geographically challenged Purchase and Price --------------------------- I brought the tom tom from Tesco, at the time I had a voucher for £50 off voucher which made it only £99 in price, very reasonable I feel for a sat nav. I did have quite a few problems with the ordering and collection of item, but thats a whole other Tesco review! The XL One comes in a pack with a small black pouch case, which is fastened by velcro, a mains charger, an in car charge (to be plugged into the lighter switch in the car) and the ...  Read the complete review

I recently bought the TomTom One XL Europe as I've said I needed a satnav for ages and because I've started driving alot further afield than usual I thought there was no time like the present. The first time I used the satnav was on my way back from Staffordshire to Huddersfield. The amount of rain than night was unbelieveable and for the majority of the journey the streets around me were in pitch black (due to the fact I was driving past midnight). I don't think I'd even be home now if it wasn't for the TomTom One. Being in the hands of this little gadget not only relaxed me but made me feel asthough I was safe because the device is 100% following you the ...  Read the complete review
