That's the trouble with renewables you need a first class storage system or it's a wast of time and that's what costs the most talking from 20yrs experience with it and cheep stuff is money down the loo
Bless u and will certainly check that out , many thks
Also have SIM card for my iPad so would be even better if it also worked on that with it being a bigger screen
Would just need to find a suitable iPad holder
Haven’t got a satnav in mine and been looking for ages to get some form of satnav be it a double din model that also has a cd player or a 7” screen to be fitted in the empty area where an oem would have fitted
Got the base model as didn’t want a lot of the extra mods along with not wanting a sunroof , also noticed going up to the hse’s cost more on the insurance
Think the only extra mods Ive done was fitting a D4 steering wheel with cruise control and replacing the manual seats with electric ones , so indeed would be very nice to have satnav
Thks again

Ours plays voice through the RR system through our little widget we have plugged in to the socket in the center box.
Doesn’t show on the big screen though.

Many thks , to be honest don’t have to voice played even when I’ve been using my Tom tom so wouldn’t worry me
Also noticed that many double din satnavs either have no CD or have to link it to ur phone
Would indeed prefer a standalone double din but assume it costs a lot more
Thks again

TomTom seems to agree that I am owed the free updates but I am pretty convinced they are deliberately making it difficult to do them. I have done them before and they have been a little tricky but nothing like as bad as this time. 
It plays from the phone through the car speakers.
It says “turn left in 200m” then goes back to whatever was playing on phone.

Sadly, the 20YO wallpaper was not available, so we went with another anaglypta with a similar motif.
Strangely, the paint is also out of production, but our decor/paint shop called up the central index and made us a colour match to the now "out of production" Vinyl Matt paint too.
We have painted the wall and you cannot tell the difference.

Good on you!Sadly, the 20YO wallpaper was not available, so we went with another anaglypta with a similar motif.
Strangely, the paint is also out of production, but our decor/paint shop called up the central index and made us a colour match to the now "out of production" Vinyl Matt paint too.
We have painted the wall and you cannot tell the difference.
W has decided we "need" to paint one single wall in the main bedroom in Fland as the dogs have a habit of rubbing themselves against it and she cannot get it clean.
At one end of the wall is the feature (wallpapered) wall so any colour mismatch will not be a problem. The other is on the southfacing wall so doesn't get direct light, (there is no window in the north facing wall, just the east facing one. The south one is largely a huge double doored french window out to the loggia. Anyway she has bought a tin of paint! We will see!
I have for some time always kept the lids of any paint used so that they can be scanned as so many places will mix paint to a scan.

My man phoned some lady up at a Dulux colour Match central site and said can I have the colour-mix for "Moonlight" Vinyl Matt?
He wrote down the numbers she gave him and added the various colours to a 5L pot of bland brilliant White Vinyl Matt and "bingo".

For all the usual reasons we have washable paint in the kitchens, utiliies and the bathrooms where they aren't tiled. (The other b/room, when finished will be fully tiled.) We have never had this problem in other rooms in both houses. It just seems to be because there is a slightly narrower bit of floor between the wall and the bed, the other walls all over the house are fine, as they are in the UK. A bit weird really.
