Re: Digital Route Planning - for those that are/want to be more tech savvy

Just a small addendum to this topic, but I've just downloaded the OS 2016 1:25000 mapping for the whole of GB from memory map for £99.99.

They are doing the 1:50000 whole of GB for £50.

Not bad value. Have a look at the offers HERE

Thanks for that tip, Phil, I have thinking up upgrading for a while.

Can you still upgrade an old map edition to the new one for less than buying it new? I am sure you used to be able to do that, but I can't find on the website.

You drive a hard bargain, Emma. I wish I'd had you on my buying team! In 2012 I paid £59.40 for the GB 1:50000 after a 40% "upgrade" discount, so I think this offer is pretty fair. I suspect that it shows that margins on digital mapping are not what they used to be, and volume & market share are the name of the game now.

No messin' about, Phil!
Seriously though, that is a good deal, which I will almost certainly go for.

Thanks for the heads up.
