I know very little about TomToms, but seems a decent saving if you're on the look out for one. Currently £105.95 at Amazon.

Heat from me. A great price that includes lifetime UK maps. I love my Start-60, although it is the older version (approx 4 years old). A superb piece of kit.
One caution, though. The Start-60 (and some other TomTom models) have been reported as suffering from erratic and random screen changes. TomTom remain largely silent on the matter. I had the problem, and solved it by replacing the touch-glass module. (Electronics knowledge/ability is required to make the repair). Some forum contributors say their Start-60 suffered from the 'erratic screen' problem from new. I'm not sure if the latest models still suffer from the fault.

I've had the earlier Start 60 for a few years and its been fine. At Christmas Tom Tom had an offer for a 12 month Speed Camera Update which I installed. However I'm not convinced its accepted as it keeps telling me speed camera update last made in 2013! I havant had the energy yet to try and find out whats going on, I like things to work first time!

I've got a tom tom via 135, about 4 years old. Is there much difference between them?

Hi ralph888,
The update speed camera 'last update 2013' is a well know fault with various TomTom,s
Contact TT Customer Services and they should be able to help you, or failing that post a message in the tomtom forums.
This particular model TT60 does suffer from touch screen problems depending on serial and batch.
Hope this helps

Heat for the price op; although I find Google maps pretty good and Here a good free app - also which works offline if you download the map.
That said if you want a dedicated sat nav then this seems like a great price to me.

Co-Pilot on a smartphone does the same thing and more yet is less than half the price of this.

Yup, you can do it on your phone; but I still much prefer my TomTom. Heated.

Presumably these aren't Internet connected, so can't reroute around traffic the way your phone can?

Hiya, Forums suggest its updated but the date gets stuck from the original time the Sat Nav was used the first time!

Yes my older TT has same problem. Satnav settings tell me last camera update was 2013. contacted both CS and TT forums. well known software problem that TT can,t be bothered to fix.
Depending what software you use TT myconnect or whatever once you log onto your account you should see from your device if updates are up to date.
hope this helps :smiley:
