June ’06: England Football Shirt signed by members of the England team was won by Kevin Ware from Barnsley. He said: 'I am very shocked about winning, you never think it will happen to you.

28th Aug ’06: Mark Dorricott, Shrewsbury, Shropshire was our final TomTom Go 510 winner, Mark said ‘thanks for the wonderful news. The sat nav will come in really handy with my job as a land surveyor. I'm out of the office every day to different sites, and forever buying different maps to find places. It's going to be great to be guided to my destination rather than struggle reading maps again!'


21st Aug ’06: Darrell Perry from Grays, Essex won our seventh TomTom Go 510 system he said ‘I am gob smacked to be chosen as the winner! I drive thousands of miles a year, so this really is the perfect prize for me. I’ve been looking at sat nav systems for a while, but they’re expensive and as there’s always something to buy for my children I thought I’d never own one. The TomTom systems are by far my favourite model, so I’m absolutely delighted to win one from Carrentals.


14th Aug ’06: Our sixth TomTom Go 510 winner was Amanda Gough from Warrington, Cheshire. “I am very excited to win the prize, it was a great surprise. I’ve seen sat nav systems in the past, but never thought I’d actually own one. It will make it much easier driving, and hopefully there’ll be no more back seat drivers! Thank you to carrentals for my prize'


7th Aug ’06: Janice Robinson from Spennymoor, County Durham, Carrentals.co.uk fifth TomTom Go 510 winner “It was a great surprise to hear I’d won – and was perfect timing as I’m planning a driving trip in the next few weeks. I’ve looked at sat nav systems in the past but always thought they were a bit expensive, so to win one in the carrentals competition is perfect. Hopefully there’s no way I can go wrong on the roads now!


31st July ’06: Susan Chittingden Susan Chittendon from Barton Under Needwood, Staffordshire was our fourth TomTom Go 510 winner, and said “I can’t believe I won – it’s a fantastic surprise, and especially when I found out so quickly. I do quite a bit of driving going to see friends and family, and when we go on holiday we often hire a car so we can see more of where we’re staying.


24th July ’06: Joanne Walton from Chalfont St Giles, Buckinghamshire our third TomTom Go 510 winner was ‘totally shocked to have won. You never think it will be you winning when you enter a competition, so this is a fantastic surprise!


17th July ’06: Tracey Hunt was our second TomTom Go 510 winner, she said ‘I’m really pleased to have won – it was a huge surprise as I never expected to win something so quickly! My husband always wanted a satellite navigation system so now we’ll both be able to use it!’


10th July ’06: Mark Beacham was our first TomTom Go 510 winner and was ‘delighted to be selected, I have used Sat Nav in someone else’s car so to win my own is great news – no more taking the wrong turn or arguments with back seat drivers!
