I have a Vista Hcx which is very good. If you want maps then a colour screen is better to see the icons on. A colour legend is also good at just over £100. http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/705/g...trex-legend-hcx There are lots about for just over £100 but below that you are looking at the Etrex H which is very good but can be limiting after a while. I am sure everyone will have their favorites but I think any of the H etrex series are very good and if you can afford the colour screen it will be better in the long run. There is lots of information already on the forums giving advice. Quote Link to comment

+*mouse* Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) This has been discussed in depth in this thread so might be worth having a read through the recommendations here too :- Linky Personally I'd hold off until you can afford to spend a little more and go for a model that can take maps and also allows you to go paperless.

Why not look for a secondhand GPS? Most people take good care of their kit, so you should be able to pick up a bargain... Quote Link to comment
