OK, you've just bought your TomTom GPS system and stupidly left it in your car to be stolen faster than a blink of an eye. OK, that’s just my stupidity, but after replacing my unit I decided that to ensure it was easy to carry around and would act as a subtle reminder I would buy a carry case. Looking around for the right one is a bit of a mission as there are so many different types available.

In the end I opted for the carry case shown at the top of the screen mainly because it looked slightly different, wasn't made from durable plastic and was only £25. Every other carry case I had seen was like a box, not too dissimilar to the case provided for face units of car audio equipment and as I already have to carry this around with me, I didn't like the idea of a briefcase packed full of plastic, instead I was drawn by the idea of a black leather case, that is roughly the same size, colour and make up of my BlackBerry cradle.

The carry case is around 0.75cm thick and on the outside has a leather finish, but more importantly, and what keeps the TomTom from being damaged or scratched should it be dropped is the interior. In between the wool inner layer there is a soft rubber/sponge like material. Despite being able to squeeze the material between my fingers, considering the lightweight of the TomTom it is easy to see how it can provide so much protection.

The TomTom slides into the case without much effort and is easy to again remove from the casing. Once the magnetised metal clip is fastened there is no danger of it springing open accidentally as it is quite a strong magnet. The wriststrap is a nice touch but I can't really see myself walking around holding onto the unit for any length of time.

I am very pleased to have chosen this carry case and would have no problems recommending it. It doesn't make the harsh knocking noise that a plastic carry case would make once in my briefcase, holds the TomTom securely and keeps it protected from any knocks or bumps whilst it is out of its cradle in the car. At £25 it is a small price to pay for peace of mid of knowing that your GPS unit is not going to end up smashed to pieces.

Sorry but you are not allowed to post the same reviews as before even if they are not on the site now. Ciao take a very dim view of this and will delete this account if they find out. Belive me I have had this happen to myself so i do no. Read the T & C. Maybe you are bettter of asking ciao to delete this and start afresh and anymore that you have done before.
