Garmin Ireland & UK (v. 2013.41)

Details for Ireland & UK (v. 2013.41)

Latest Maps v.2013.41

These latest maps are the most comprehensive for Ireland. All motorways and by-passes are available on this map set.

If you are looking to update your maps on your sat=nav and only need to update your Ireland maps this SD card option is the cheapest.

Garmin Portable Friction Mount - Beanbag

Details for Portable Friction Mount - Beanbag

One of the best and most popular Garmin accessories. This new portable friction mount features a non-skid bottom and pliable base to keep the mount secure on your dashboard..

For ease of use, setup and removing quickly from the dashboard to hide under your seat, this mount is an excellent no fuss solution. Unlike suction cup mounts, that leave ring marks on the windscreen, or permanent dashboards mounts this mount leave no evidence that you even have a GPS in your car - so it's a great deterrent for would-be thieves.

Garmin Navigation App & Car Kit for iPhone

Details for Navigation App & Car Kit for iPhone

Highly Recommended
This is a great choice if you want a navigation app for your iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S.

The Garmin StreetPilot App brings Garmin's exclusive navigation features to your iPhone, along with the simplicity a bespoke navigation unit gives you.

Best of all, of course, is that the app downloads the maps to your iPhone so there are no data charges incurred when using the app.

Garmin nüvi 2545LM NOH - Free Lifetime Maps

Details for nüvi 2545LM NOH - Free Lifetime Maps


5" widescreen display with free lifetime maps of Western Europe.

This system is a Newly Overhauled/Refurbished unit that comes a full 12-month manufacturer's warranty from Garmin. It is impossible to tell these systems apart from a brand new unit and you save yourself €64 or 27% in the process.

This is a limited offer while stock lasts.

Garmin nüvi 2415LM - Free Lifetime Maps

Details for nüvi 2415LM - Free Lifetime Maps

If you are looking for a Ireland/UK sat-nav then we recommend the Garmin nüvi 2415LM.  It has free lifetime map updates, a 4.3" dual-orientation widescreen display and Bluetooth - everything you need from a basis sat-nav.

The nüvi 2415LT comes with Lifetime Traffic but we feel that due to lack of coverage and some features in the Republic, this is an unnecessary expense if you will be using the sat-nav primarily in Ireland.

Garmin nüvi 2447LM - 2547LM - 2447LMT - 2547LMT

Details for nüvi 2447LM - 2547LM - 2447LMT - 2547LMT


Unless you specifically want a sat-nav with lifetime traffic information, we recommend LM(Lifetime maps) devices. The reason for this is that in Ireland traffic information, while reasonably good in the greater Dublin region and main cities, is generally not available elsewhere.  If you intend to use your sat-nav primarily abroad and in the UK then LMT devices, with lifetime maps and traffic are worth considering.

Garmin zūmo 660LM - Free Lifetime Maps

Details for zūmo 660LM - Free Lifetime Maps

The zūmo 660 from Garmin has been around several years now and it is, in our opinion, the very best of all the motorcycle GPS systems.

It is offered with Free Lifetime Maps so no more map update purchases.

Over the last few years we have sold a lot of 660s and in spite of our inclement weather at times these units are trouble free and we have no issues to report with them.

The power issues and pin corrsion problems of the zūmo 550 have been properly corrected in the 660.

We would absolutely recommend this as the premium motorcycle GPS of choice.

The main difference between the zūmo 660 and zūmo 350 is that the 660 makes it possible for the rider to make calls and receive navigational demands through a Bluetooth enabled headset or helmet. The 350 does not support phone calls. We would recommend Cardo Scala Rider headsets as these seem the easiest to attach to your helmet and pair with the zūmo.

We stock the entire line of Cardo Scala Riders which can be found here.

Garmin Forerunner 410 HR

Details for Forerunner 410 HR

A great way to keep the motivation going during those long winter evenings.

The Garmin Forerunner 410 HR is a sophisticated sports watch and feature-rich personal trainer. The GPS-enabled watch tracks your training (time, pace, distance, heart rate, elevation and more), then wirelessly sends your data to your computer so that it can be analysed and shared with others.

We have been testing this watch on a regular basis over the last three months and it is definitely one of, if not, the best sport watch currently available on the market.  You will not be disappointed with this GPS unit.

Garmin Edge 500 Bundle

Details for Edge 500 Bundle

We like the Garmin Edge 500 Bundle because it has everything you need in a high quality GPS enabled bicycle computer.  The addition of the heart rate monitor and speed cadence sensor along with the barometric altimeter gives you the very precise readings you need for your training programs.

The model is available in a number of different colour combinations. The most popular are the blue and silver (010-00829-00 ) and the black and silver (010-00829-01). Call us on 01-293 6987 if you want more details and availabiity of these models.

Garmin eTrex 20

Satmap Active 10 Bundle

Details for Active 10 Bundle

GolfBuddy Voice

Details for Voice

The GolfBuddy Voice is the first golf GPS system to offer voice instructions. It is an exceptionally neat device - small, compact and light. Originally the idea was that golfers could attach it to their golfing cap and hear instructions as they play the course. Now the Voice is supplied with a free watch strap so golfers can choose to operate the device in silent mode if they prefer.

We like these devices as Golfbuddy are dedicated specialists in this area and take care in producing an extensive and highly accurate database of golf courses for use on their GPS devices. All course updates are free of charge so there are no further subscription fees.

Garmin nüvi Accessory Travel Pack

Details for nüvi Accessory Travel Pack

Garmin nüvi Accessory Travel Pack

We recommend the travel pack because it simply is great value. You get a decent carry case suitable for all Garmin nuvi 3.5" and 4.3" sat-navs, a spare USB cable and a wall charger that has adaptors for Ireland & UK, Europe and the US.

As Garmin vehicle powers cables don't charge the battery in your Garmin, the travel pack is a great backup.
