Welcome to the program guys - you should now see a 'Project MGA Testing' area of the forum.

Lutzh, you will miss out a little to begin with, but the fact you are in Germany will become invaluable further down the line.

Note: The initial test team will be capped at around 10 testers.

Hence the reason I choose not to live there as well :wink:

[Guest Dr_StrangeTrick]

If its not too late I am up for it.

E200 (unlocked), TomTom wireless GPS, Haicom 201S serial GPS (both verified as working) and just in case the test software is huge I also have a 1Gb SD card.

Live in Birmingham, drive every day.

3) Lincoln to London and return once a week - M11 - M25 oh wot fun :x

4) Anything to make the journey a tad interesting or productive!

[Guest dynamo]

The cheapest brand new you're going to get is probably going to set you back just over £100 (www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk is a good place to look)

My bluetooth gps arrived this morning from an ebay seller costing £74 (inc del.) which seems to work fine. That seller seems to have plenty, here's a link to another unit the same as i've got.
