That's a great idea. Wish I could see some video of it in action.

Although, who in their right mind would want Jeremy Clarkson giving them directions.

Very cool, wouldn't be nice if there was a set location for speed traps, speed camras.

I looked on youtube and you can see a demo of it. It does have the live feature too so it will tell you where speed cameras an red light cameras are at too.

Thats great. Imagine if May was doing it. Turn left 15 min talk about the spruce tree on the right & you miss your turn. But he never tells you & goes on a long ramble about the benefits of keeping your windscreen clean.

i would make that a non clickable link or the mods will eat you alive. i am a garmin fan and have found that those traffic updates etc.... are just worthless and never up to date just like the maps on all gps systems. maybe tom tom is defferent but it is just another gimick to me.

I heard that for those long road trips, it will tell you where the nearest cleanest bathroom is, and even if it is occupied or not.

The demo on youtube had Jeremy state" You will reach your destination in 700 yards, if your car can make it that far." I would imagine it would have a lot of similar things.
