Nice unit with it's small 5" display. Tom Tom software but it does have a few issues not mentioned when buying.
The biggest issue is being unable to add a CSV file with a list of Campsites or Pubstops. You are expected to add they manually one at a time.
Second issue is upto date maps. New maps are only available when requested by Fiat. Mine had 2015 maps with no update available. Vehicle bought in 2016.

I wonder if I can hijack this thread with another Satnav question - so we've just purchased a Autotrail Tracker (2016) which comes with a TomTom sat nav. I also have a built in TomTom in my Mazda and have a removable memory card. I've hunted high and low for the memory card in the tracker but couldn't find it - is your post above the reason? That basically there isn't one? (the dealer didn't know!). Also, I have TomTom live which I pay £39 per year on which gives me live traffic and a godesnding re-route facility (I drive for work) - I wondered if I could have this on the satnav in the M'H too but am guessing not

The Sat Nav in the Fiat has nothing to do with Tom Tom they just pay Tom Tom for a licence to use their software. The Fiat unit is made by Continental in the Czech Republic. It's probably some sort of Windows CE device. There is no SD Card port on it and the Software is part of the unit. Tom Tom are not interested in queries etc. Fiat use the same basic software in a number of different units. Someone must know how to hack it.
