Hello all
I firstly want to tell you why i am here.
I purchased around 6 years ago and probably more my tomtom a GO 920 mainly due to it having international maps at the time.
Anyway, yesterday night, i was driving from Enfield to South east London, when the motorway which i use to go home was closed, i followed the diversion signs along the roundabout, which led me onto alternative motorway, were i then resumed following the tomtom.
After driving for 20 minutes on this new motorway, the tomtom then tells me to take turns, an then i end up driving another 20 minutes, i thought hmm okay, surely it would of adjusted itself to take me back home....Nopeee its only gone an taken me back to the roundabout to the original motorway which had no access as it was closed!
I ended up parking the car somewhere, grabbing the tomtom off the windscreen and throwing it onto the back seat, an ended up using my phone! which finds me alternative routes/adjusts itself, which is all i wanted this poxy old device to do!
Im not illiterate when it comes to technology either, but it just frustrated me, especially after a long tiring and crappy day, thats not what i needed.
So i would like a new device lol which can re-adjust itself when their is closures, roadworks.
I would like something which does tell me where their is traffic and finds me new routes, like google maps and updated with all the new cameras.
I have been looking at the tomtom 6000, an would like to ask if this fits the bill or is their another which you would recommend
