Have an older Honda with a built in Sat Nav that is starting to fail, and Honda also want £200 for DVD with updated maps! So I bought the Tom Tom Via 135 special edition from Halfords with lifetime maps (take note Honda.) The device works well, the display is good, entering locations is easy - I like the fact destination can be entered with a Lat and Long which I can obtain from Googe Earth which is spot on better than post codes.
The screen attachment device was a bit problematical but have mastered it now. I bought a Tom Tom mounting kit with the device that fits in the air grill but is totally useless so don't spend money on that.
All in all however a really good buy.

I already owned a Tomtom one 2nd edition Europe with an old map. Instead of buying a new map I bought this from Halfords a week ago. I chose the start 25 with free lifetime maps which I decided was a no brainer being very much better that laying out the high price for a single, time limited, map for my old device. I cannot sing the praises of the new unit high enough. I first downloaded "my Tomtom" (not Tomtom home). Then, registering the device to secure the lifetime maps was simplicity itself. I can now get 4 new map updates each year. The large screen is excellent but found you do need to set the brightness to maximum on sunny days. Day and night displays are available as well as a choice of map colours.
