Wonderful guys.

Your replies have cracked me up ...... Very Happy

Oh yes, a friend of mine who gave it to me when he returned home abroad a month ago, bought it at Halfrauds last October.

Sadly I had no receipt.

I wonder if he might have dropped it before I had it.

Here she is at peace now....R.I.P Tom Tom .... Crying or Very sad

The convertible story is feasible I reckon and do you think that it might be repairable? Confused

The back looks OK !!!! Wink

Hi everyone,

Just spotted this on AOL this morning.

So I am not the only person in the world to chuck a SatNav out of the window .... Laughing

Have had a Garmin StreetPilot Sat Nav for years.

Struggle to use it. It picks some strange ways.

Recently went on a journey (a place we had not been before) as we got close to our destination it gave directions what road signs gave, was away from were we wanted to be, miles down some back roads, then round a bend lo and behold right to the places car park.

Will not call it again, would not have found it by myself in 2-years of Sundays.

Incidentally once thrown from the car when I could not get it to understand were I wanted to go, yet it still works.

Therefore, if I had to buy a new one it would be a Garmin.

Note to Mods:
Would it be worth while maintaining an up to date list of models which do not support PGPSW database and audible alerts as a sticky at the head of this forum. It would save a great deal of time searching through specs
