 Satnavs - apropos of nothing - zippy
I drove 180 odd miles yesterday to take Miss Z to dinner (no special occasion, just a mutual day off).

On the way to the restaurant the sat nav gave me a turn instruction far too late.

Miss Z reminded me about the Vaxhall Mokka we had from new in 2013, one of the first to be sold.

It had a Bosch SD card based sat nav which would often stutter to the kid's great amusement (T, t, t, t, turn l, l, l, l, left at the next exit).

It would also occasionally start giving instructions in very stern German "Nehmen Sie im Kreisel die dritte Ausfahrt"

Of course none of this happened when trying to demonstrate the fault to the dealer!
