TomTom XL

we realized that it was time to invest in one of our own and spent days researching various options and reading reviews. Our final choice was the Tomtom XL . I realise that most people have a love/hate relationship with their Sat Nav, especially when it gets confused and instructs you to do a random U-turn (for no apparent reason!) or politely directs you to turn right, turn right and turn right again until you end up back in the road you were driving in 3 turns ago. Nobody will ever be able to explain the logic behind some Sat Nav instructions, unless it really wants you to do some sightseeing en route to your destination. Having mentioned the quirks of the ...

TomTom XL

I bought a Tom Tom One XL sat nav device two years ago & wrote a glowing review about it on Ciao, however after using the device for two years my opinion of this device has changed. Originally I was looking for a no nonsense sat nav unit that was small enough to fit inside a jacket pocket when not used.

TomTom XL Europe 31 Traffic

I bought the Tomtom XL a couple of weeks ago and found it overall to be a reasonable quality sat nav. Admittedly this is my first sat nav, but this is a functional and easily accesible sat nav. The menu systems are fairly intuitive and easy to get the grip of. I ve hardly had to use the manual to get going and work out how to do things which is obviously a plus. The maps themselves have mainly been fine, but here and there it has tried to send me through a deadend or down a one way street(!). This can be amended manually when you come across a mistake and then shared with other users online. One of the major negative points of this Tomtom is the mount however. All you ...
