China, UK, USA, SA. All over the place, I've lost track of what it all cost, but probably about R8000 or so. I think.

ha ha... na its not the 180 version(wish it was though).... i was quite limited on $$$$ at the time and wanted your not everyday performance car eg, civic vtek, no offence to civic drivers.... i just wanted somthing different but with all around good performance... so the 206 gti was my choice, it does have a 2.0L standard but i can always upgrade the engine at a later stage. i sent an email to moved.co.za and got a reply the next day... they said they should be up hopefully within the next 2months.... hopefully...

anywebsites you can recommend.... other than mp3car store pm me if you want

Has anyone seen anything about using tomtom maps with destinator? is it possible to use one programs maps with another program?

I think it is in different formats.
I am using Nroute

nice program hey, but crap for touch screen. Have you seen the linux open source gps software being developed, it can use a bunch of different maps, including garmin. Check on the linux forums at mp3car.com

I'm using a skin which someone develop on this site, which is touch screen friendly.
In which area of Durban do you stay?
