Take a look at the Sat Nav Tips thread here http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/chatter/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=6&TopicID=54861&PagePosition=2

There are some links to other sites where you can get some ideas. There are also some sat nav forums listed which are useful.

Hi - I posted a similiar thread not so long ago and several replies were as follows:

Garmin Streetpilot i3,  Navman pin300,  Medion pocket pc,  Tomtom go 700 and 500, and lastly M10269.  I think all of these can have Europe downloaded into them. Hope this helps

Regards

Donna

If you are looking to have a rear camera utilising the same screen as the sat nav then most stand alone units do not have a AV input so they cannot be used.

You may have to look at a indash unit like the systems by Pioneer/Alpine.This way you have a integral Sat Nav/Radio/Cd player and is able to use a camera for the back.Problem is their not cheap

We used to have an older style 'Sat Nav' tried our Tom Tom out this week that we bought from Halfords brilliant and you can download speed cameras on it as well as Europe, wouldn't want to go back to the old one now, but it has come in useful for our Son to have as a back up when we are away at the same time.
