Surely ebay is your best hope for hooky software?

TeeCee beat me to it. BitTorrent it. You can also legitimately buy SD cards and DVDs from other companies (such as Garmin) for about £40-60. Kenwood make them too. I bet you'll find a bunch on eBay too. It depends how out of date you think your maps are - if you've got a new-ish car then will the roads have changed that much...?

Have tried Kenwood but they advised me to go to Subaru direct . No chance with their silly prices. Cannot find anything of interest on Ebay. Why would spmebody try and sell a 2005 dvd? Can anybody guide me to a company that I could buy a dvd from? Many thanks

I've got to say, I use a very reliable system. It's called an OS map ;-)

More than a boot full I reckon.

Britain's a fairly big place and you'll need a lot of maps to cover the whole thing.......even if you unfold them first ;-)

I do use the ubiquitous Tom Tom-but I feel as if my masculinity is somewhat diminished every time I plug it in. Almost as bad as having the letter 'D' emblazened on the switch where the gear lever should be!

Every so often I try to restore lost virility by doing it properly ie with a map book resting on the steering wheel.

Any chance of getting back to the original subject? I need some helo in obtaining a new dvd. Thanks.

Ask for directions?!?! Not with 6ft 3" Mr Bobbin in the car I trust?

A fire that requires poking is amateurishly built and therefore not masculine at all. ;)

I gave up sharpening a pencil with a knife because either the lead is sharpened into a long lightning conductor rod that immediately snaps upon contact with paper or the tip ends up with a straight edge that gives a caligraphy style to one's drawings which is inappropriate for back of a back of a fag packet style sketches.

This isn't helping OP at all!

If it's like the system on my previous Jag any dodgy upgrade DVDs can wreck the system - be careful.

I miss my in car system as it's always there. My trips are local, so I know where I'm going and I tend to use the same routes so don't take sat nav with me - it's a faff to set up and you have to remove it everytime.

Having in built is great when you reach a probelm as you can quickly find an alternative route.

Hi Ethan

Unfortunately not but thanks anyway.
