Sat nav

I have an Aguri sat nav for caravans and motorhomes. You can enter the dimensions of your outfit and it choses suitable roads. This device is a hybrid using an android operating system, Here maps and Garmin hardware. I have now used it for long enough to form an opinion, which might apply to other sat navs. It gives good routes with notification of hazzards such as sharp bends etc. The voice directions are very good. However there are problems - the screen is highly reflective so mounting is difficult. It has a dash cam that can only be used when mounted with a view of the road. This would obstruct the windscreen in many cases and be illegal. Warm up times are very long as this is a tablet with a dedicated app. It is expensive and I could not recommend it. I have written this to suggest that before buying you should ensure that you can mount the device where it will work without breaking the law and will be visible without reflections. Before buying I tried Co-Pilot, which produced some curious routes in the Maidstone area and directed me to use a dangerously unsuitable road near Normans Bsy, Eastbourne.

Wow at £20 off something that costs on pence short of £400 not much of an offer. I will continue to use my Garmin from Aldi £85 with free lifetime Europe map updates and use it with a bit of common sense.
