Coming back from St Neots to Peterborough the other day, My sat nav sent me onto the A1M south bound then told me to do a U-turn :S

I have always used a Tom Tom 920 ish. Also now have a Garmin, just in case I get lost. 

Just wondered if anyone else has a special 999 Tom Tom like mine.

Mine is fabulous it routes me off the motorways especialy the Car Park (M25).  It requires me to use direct exits the police ones that are illegal to the public.

Saves time from M25 clockwise to Iver, that is until I get arrested.
