    Re: sat nav

    Followed a foreign HGV for ten miles up an unclassified road the other day 👿 , richardhead ended up with 20 odd vehicles trailing behind him, he eventually pulled over and when I got past him he was happily tapping on his navsat. That wasn’t’ his biggest problem, I knew the road and there was no way he could get much further along it and there was only a couple of places that he might get turned around 🙂 he would have to go back nearly 15 miles to get on the right road.:rotl: I might have got out and advised him if he hadn’t held me up for so long 😈 That’s nav sat for you :rolls:

    the envy of the rest of the world is the OS landranger map will find village and cross country routes and its a better read than most news papers.

    I don’t know how good these are. But I have just ordered a ‘B’ grade one. If you are quick you can get a “B” grade for £75, yesterday there 32 of them today just 13 left. but even at 100.00 you can’t really go wrong.

    Wasn’t Hungarian was he?
    There was one in the news this week and they had to lift his truck out with a crane when he got stuck between two buildings on a single track road. 😈

    Not seen a post from Boro, one of our Bosch experts for some time now,he has the misfortune to support Middlesbrough FC, they have just annouced their new sponsors, I guess it is a way of getting a few extra supporters to find their way to the ground. :rolls:

    Oh sorry, forgot to mention, Garmin are the new sponsors of Middlesbrough FC. 😆

    Hi All

    I still say that the fully fitted ones even though they are 4 times the cost fitted new are the better investment if you intend keeping the vehicles for more than 4 yrs.

    Waste of time the sh&ts nicking part as there useless without the rest of the system and it’ll take them a while to get system out if at all.

    I have the VDO DAYTON ststems fitted to all 3 of my vans,the last complete system cost me £250 from e-bay plus £100 fitting.

    Far more functions,larger screen.
