Are you looking for a dedicated unit (Garmin, Magellan, etc.) or a PDA? For PDA, I'd guess that a bluetooth GPS receiver would give you most flexibility. You could mount this on the rear parcel shelf. I have an sleeve type receiver with a remote antenna mounted on the rear parcel shelf of my car.

Do plenty of research or you'll end up thinking 'If only....'

Don't worrie about the heated windscreen on the mondeo. I just bought myself a TomTom / iPAQ 1940 set. Works great on my Mondeo model year 2003. Although I have the the windscreen heater, I get about 6-7 satellite fixes. Tomtom is a great tool. I got the TomTom 2 including a HP iPAQ 1940 and a comprehensive set of car kits for €450 (that includes the iPAQ). Upgrade to TomTom 3 is FREE. Works great for me and I can highly recommend it.
