Hello everybody,
I am thinking about updating my 2008 Satnav mapping software . Does anyone know of a decent source / supply of the necessary discs ?.
I would be most grateful of any info. best regards, Chris Bartram.

Hi, I am pretty sure that only place you can get one is from navteq:

Also found this on ebay:

A bit cheaper, though beware as I bought one from there once and the disc was blank...

Hi,
I am also looking to update my sat nav from 2007 - 2008 to the latest available. Did anyone resolve where to obtain the discs?

Bought one of these for my XJ, works a treat:

ebay item: 281334174787

Copies i guess as original disc update from navteq is £160, which is a total rip off as you can now get free sat nav on your phone with google maps app.....

PS: Note this is 2009-2010 disc , i think if you want the very latest one you probably need to go to navteq, but it is quite adequate.

Hi,
I took the plunge and bought the ebay disc No (261476386594). It cost £20.00 and I followed the instructions enclosed which worked fine. No problems encountered and it is now showing 2011-12 as the version on the car. I have used it for short journeys and again it works fine.
Hope this helps
