I had Traffic Master on a family Vectra - must have been 1997. I'd forgotten all about it until it was mentioned now - not particularly useful. My first sat-nav was a 2005 TomTom - it was pretty good - still works (well it did the last time I checked it around 3 years ago) - bought a TT Rider for the bike, which is now obsolete and was replaced by a heavily discounted TT unit direct from TT - which is quite trick. The Volvo (of course) has a built in unit, which is crap compared to the units in my last BMW 3 Series. The Volvo has Apple Play, so this is the go-to navigation device these days. My Guzzi has a bluetooth link to my helmet and phone and this actually provides simple turn by turn navigation that repeats from the phone to the MFD and can provide spoken instructions to my helmet which has built speakers. I rarely use it as i generally still plan my bike routes beforehand, I can also use my phone on a dedicated X "RAM" handle bar mount which isn't my favourite way to ride for lots of theft/damage reasons.
