Has anyone used one of these?

They seem a little too good to be true for the price. Good reviews on Amazon and elsewhere with just a few people complaining about some arriving and not working properly. From what I can work out though, it's just one guy (who's an ex-trucker) who runs the company and he's very helpful and quickly replaces any faulty ones.

I was looking at the Garmin one but £360 is excessive for something I probably won't use often. I have my Philips Street Atlases for most of the places I go but I sometimes get sent further afield. I used a collegeues Garmin the other day on one such occasion and it was very good but as I said £360 for something I'll probably only use once every 2 months is a lot.

You can pick up 7" truck sat navs for about £35 .
I have used them for 6 years and they were about £70 when I first used them .
I have been all over Europe with them ,wthout problems .
Get a 8gb one as the smaller storage fills up very quickly .
They are very easy to use and can be set for the dimensions and weight of the truck . They can also be set for hazardous goods .
