I fancy treating myself to a double DIN car radio with Satnav, and the most important feature for me is the satnav, because although the rubber-sucker one that I already have is fine, I'm sick of it falling off the windscreen, needing to take it off to avoid theft and the trailing wires, so would appreciate some recommendations.
My car is an old Shogun off-road workhorse (most of the contributors to the diesel car thread will love me that has double-DIN capability. Here are my requirements:
1. A good Satnav. Is the Satnav as good as in the normal stand-alone satnavs?
2. With big, high cars it can be difficult to stick to the speed limits, especially as I drive a lot of different vehicles. Do the Satnavs come with speed limit warnings, camera warnings and so on?
3. I will want to plug in a reversing camera, especially as I'm always backing up to trailers. Hopefully this will be a tidier solution than a separate monitor for the reversing camera.
3. A big screen that darkens at night.
4. Be able to take phone calls, Android smartphone.
Any advice will be appreciated, thanks.
