My brother has a business selling that sort of thing. His name is Russell and his home phone number is 0131 657 1230 he lives in Porty.

He retails and installs.

I think his web address might be www.parkmyauto.com or .co.uk but he has a couple of sites dedicated to different gear.
He also does loads of other in-car stuff, he should keep you right.

Nads, I'm sure you know your husband, and like most blokes I'm a sucker for a gadget, but Â£300 for what is basically an electronic map? Give me a Â£1:99 AA map and Â£298:01 change and I would be delighted.

Mind you, I resent every penny I spend on my car - especially the Â£60 excess it is going to cost to have my windscreen replaced tomorrow. Don't ask.

GPS rocks. BB & I were in a taxi the other night with a Â£350 GPS unit.

Absolutely beautiful 3d display. 10 years ago this technology would either have been unavailable, or cost thousands.

Maybe you should invest. May keep you from driving into the kerb.
