First Sat Nav for Dad in his Seventies - Help!!!

branners69

Hey,

my dad has decided he wants a Sat Nav, he is in his seventies. As I dont want to be answering a million questions, ease of use is very important.

Another factor is screen size & resolution - his eyes aint getting any younger!

He doesnt mind spending €250 if need be, but it should be future proof with available map updates available for free!

He will be using it mainly in Ireland but also in the UK & Europe.

Any recommendations? I have seen the TomTom IQ XL & Garmin Nuvi 265T Wide mentioned in threads. Would one of them suit his needs?

Many thanks,

Branners

Cheers xp90, I think I will tell him to have a look at the TomTom IQ XL!

I see Power City have it for €190 which doesnt seem like a bad price.

Thanks again,
