Default [OT] Choosing a SatNav for my Mother in Law

I'm hoping to tap into the UK-DIY SatNav knowledge base!


My MIL has expressed a desire/need for a SatNav for her car. This is
good as we had decided to buy one for her this Christmas.


As a Garmin Zumo user I'm not well placed to make an informed choice of
MIL-friendly SatNavs and seek the advice/opinions of the subscribers here.


IMO she needs: UK mapping only, full TTS instructions, full UK postcode
searching and simplicity of operation. Not much really! I'm open to
arguments as to why she may not need TTS etc.


I don't want to rush out and buy a TomTom One without giving the matter
careful consideration. Especially as Misco are offering this:

If you're looking at the bottom end of the market CPC had refurbished
Garmin on offer the other day which looked like a good deal. Unfortunately
I've deleted the email.
