I might be missing something but, in the club member offers the Avtex Sat Nav is listed - when clicking the link it turns out to be £349.00 - to both members and non members - My issue is I can buy it in most caravan dealers at £299.00 -------- why is it in the members offers page??????????

We have the Garmin 660 LMT,which is the same as the avtex cc version but without the club site function,but they come up when looking for camp sites in the programmes It cost us £134 last time ALDI had them in (last summer)

It seems the person / people who vet the offers are not really doing a great deal to save the members money?

It's an offer, you don't have to accept it. wink

Why advertise it as an offer when it's blatantly not. Obviously I won't be accepting it - I'm not lining brown envelopes

i would not bother getting one. out of seven sites i have been to recently it was only able to give the correct directions to 2. getting to area is ok it just goes tits up on the critical last half mile. my previous tom-tom had no problem getting you to the correct address. Poor show caravan club for not knowing the correct co-ordinents to your own club sites.

My TomTom seems fine. I put in the post code and then change for points of interest/caravan and camping sites near destination and pick the CC site off the list. Cannot see one with dedicated CC info being different as they are on my standard TomTom satnav anyway.

We have a tomtom but there's no points of interest for caravan sites - did you down load them?

No. Bought mine about 3 years ago. Amongst the points of interest groups is a tent symbol. I just select that for points near my destination and the club sites are listed alongside others.

I would phone TomTom and enquire as I have found them helpful in the past when a neighbour had problems.
