The TomTom Go Live 1000 satnav is a hard argument to make in a world full of smartphones with free navigation. Surely dedicated PND prices should be going down, not up? No matter: this gadget has plenty of features that free alternatives can’t hope...

Unfortunately, even with our southern RP accent, it struggled to make much sense of our request s most of the time, confusing postcodes for “tourist info” and “Ealing” for “Liverpool Street” – the latter two are not clos...

There’s no denying it : TomTom, Garmin, Mio and the rest’s low range dedicated satnavs feel increasingly irrelevant in the wake of free phone services, and even the company’s own apps for those platforms.But the TomTom Go Live 1000 isn’t for casual dri...

The next time you pass a minicab, take a good look at the dashboard: there's a good chance that the hapless passenger's destination is under the control of a GPS-enabled smartphone. A couple of years ago you'd have almost certainly seen a dedicated sa...

The Go Live 1000 is speed demon of a satnav, able to calculate routes and re-route a lot faster than its rivals. Factor in its excellent Live services (free for a year), which serve up real time traffic updates, the locations of mobile speed cameras and the ability to find locations using Google’s Local Search tech, and you’ve got a fantastically capable, fast-acting satnav. It’s £47 per year to...
There’s isn’t much to pick at here, except perhaps the price. The Go Live 1000 is more expensive than most of its rivals, and if you don’t find yourself using satnav regularly you might not feel like you’re getting the best value for money.

As with its TomTom LIVE predecessors, the GO 1000 is not a cheap sat-nav and despite its abilities, if you're only an occasional traveller it will be overkill. For those in this category, a more modest option would make better economic sense. But for thos...
