Not too sure if its in the price budget but TomTom seem to be the best in my opinion. The cheapest is probly going for about 300 squid at the moment and they have postcode search...

Get the garmin one mate, the streetpilot i3. It is bloody amazing! i bought it 2 months ago. You can type in the post code etc as you wanted. Some on ebay come with preloaded speed camera locations too so you know where they are. I bought mine from ebay for £140 p&p inc.

that looks good too, the garmin one is alot smaller though. This Navman looks like its good features too. They are a respectable make too.

Thats quite cheap, ive had a look in halfords before not intending to buy one and the cheapest one I saw was over £200.
I'm goin to try asda again see if they still sell them,it was before christmas when i saw them so they might not have them anymore.
