Best Sat Nav With Speed Camera Alerts?



  VRS
im after replacing the road angel as im fed up with the dodgy signal from the clios uv windscreen

now ive heard that the newer sat navs have better gps receivers which work fine in the clios without an external antenna

so which is the best value sat nav which works well with the clio windscreen that had speed camera updates ?

cheers

the latest tom tom advertised on pc world comes with speed camera already installed

i had the tom tom one bought for me last year and bought the speed detection software and its great, i dont even have to place it near the gps square on the windscreen to get a signal and if you take a wrond turn the correct is within 5 seconds max

even answers vocal queries

are the speed camera detectors on the sat navs as good as the road angel ie do they give you warnings as you get to them or do they just show them on your route?

they warn you if the camera is on your route, you can adjust how far away too.

Do the mobile speed camera detectors still pick up the large motors that are on roller doors etc, i remember these can be picked up as speed cameras by mistake. Or have things moved on?

Doh! Got prices wrong! The Garmin 250 is £180 in shops, £115 from Amazon, so just over half the price of the tom tom!
Forgot to mention the Garmin is preloaded with camera locations, but you can also update them

My TomTom One has speed cameras and works through the screen, picks them up around the same time as my RA2 does. The updates for the TomTom speed camera database have also just gone weekly.

rich do you still use your ra2 as well then?

I only really used the TomTom on long journeys, but did use them both - though the bloody RA2 refuses to update now so just the TomTom now.

Ive got a base model garmin, £150 from halfrauds. Really pleased with it so far, had no issues with the windscreen. Not tried updating the speed cameras yet though.
