 SIM in the car - Crankcase
Just in case this is useful to anyone:

I wanted to put a sim in the car to enable just traffic data. The fact that AFTER I ordered it I realised my variant doesn't actually have a sim slot is neither here nor there.

Anyway, the sim I ordered is from Three, who do a 200MB a data only month sim (so enough for traffic data) for the grand total of nothing. I think to keep it alive you have to make one call/text every six months or something.

Anyway, it's a bit niche and most people doing this will be using their phone and have a contract with gobbets of free data anyway, but for us mere PAYG users I thought I'd mention it in case it helps anyone setting this up.

I've since realised my phone has a dual sim slot, so I might be able to point the phone to the three sim for mobile data and keep everything else on my normal sim, thus achieving what I wanted anyway.
