I will be getting my Octy 2.0TDi just before Chrimbo with any luck and I am wondering which Gadgets I transfer from my old car to my new. Over the years I have aquired quite a few, all now hard wired in so I have the chance to lose some as they are a bit OTT IMHO.

Anyway currently I have:

Alpine 9812 MP3 Player

Road Angel II

TomTom Go

Digital Compass & Thermometer

In the boot.........

Wellingtons, Eye Goggles, Dust Mask/Respirator, Epoxy resin, glow-in-the-dark paint, acrylic primer spray, two fleece jackets, tin of ronseal wood wash (white ash) and varnish (clear satin), four pairs of assorted latex & rubber gloves(:eek: :confused:), car park tickets (used), 1 bottle of Skoda dealer branded in-car fragrance + matching handy-wipes :gay:

Beat that assortment!

Your dropping the traffic master why?

It's a very old one with just LEDS that sticks to your windscreen and takes three AAA batteries which it eats and only prompts you to phone the 50p/minute line, found it to not be very accurate.

It came free when Car Kit installed in my original Company Car many years ago.

Could do with a Tomtom Go unit that supports speed cameras, links to Traffic Master type system via GPRS on the Mobi then I only need 1 unit.

Tomtom Go DOES support the speed camera database: you need to download the latest software from the Tomtom website. It also has its own warning system for POIs, that allows you to choose from a range of warning sounds. It actually works really well: it's arguably better than Tomtom 3 on a PDA, with checkPOInt.

I'm not sure if Go allows a link to the traffic information, but tomtom 3 certainly does now, if you've got a Bluetooth phone.
