How about this - Pioneer ANH-P9R. Single DIN Europe wide SAT NAV with voice directions. Only a mono screen, but cheap, single DIN, Europe wide and doesn't attract attention. Should be able to pick one up on ebay from around the £200 mark. Easy to install, uses the existing pioneer cabling and just needs a connection the the speed sensor near the diff (grey wire) I have found it just as accurate as the flash all singing all dancing system in my Renault Laguna.

If you look closely at the pic you can see on the righthand side of the screen is an arrow saying 'off road' (cause the car is in my Garage) but this normally shows the directions allong with distance to go etc.

I'mm looking into SatNavs right now so any thoughts would be welcome here too. I am looking for one that is portable so we can take it from car to car.

I have one of these in the Tuscan & even if you buy it new is good value.

Also have an Acer N35 using Destinator & that is also very good and around £225.

Does it sound much the same quality as the original unit is fitted to TVRs?
Are they easy to fit - I have found one but with no manual. So want to ensure that it is plug n play (plus the diff connection).??
thanks
