    I am trying to buy a 'Tom Tom Go 710' for my car but have been unable to locate any place in Ireland that sells this particular model.

    I know Tom tom does not have Irish roads in it but I want it for the Uk and Europe mainly.
    I know there are plenty of online places in the Uk I can buy it but I would prefer to buy it in a shop here as I would feel safer about buying it that way given that at £399 sterling they are hardly a cheap item.
    I am not really interested in any other models as I feel this is the best one for me on a cost/benefit basis.

    Any help would be appreciated as I need it fairly urgently. :rolleyes:

    Not too sure why an Irish shop would stock this, seeing as it's no good for Ireland?

    Expansys.ie are a fairly safe bet to buy online from - link. Failing that, maybe a trip up north may get you one?

    I just got a Garmin street pilot 111 off ebay for 185 sterling including 30 quid postage and mapsource 8 free from Garmin. I know your not looking for a different model and online is not a preference but while searching ebay their was loads of tomtom's on auction.I wouldn't normally recommend ebay either, I've been stung in the past but it may be worth a look if you have no luck.
