    Apologise if this has been asked. If I use a SIM in the dash, can I connect a bluetooth phone and make/recieve calls?

    Check out the PAYG 321 plan from 3.

    You can get a free SIM and then it is just 1p/Mb with no expiry, plus you get 150Mb data when you top up £10. So if you are only using 300Mb/month. The £10 top up should be good for nearly 4 months.

    Order - Free SIM - Support - Three

    This should be fine for google earth. If your usage is higher (my teenagers rack up usage with the iPad in the car), then the 12Gb 12 month SIM can be had for about £80 (sometimes less).

    Yes this has been covered at length in other threads. The simple answer is that if you have a MY14 car (built after approx June 2013) then yes you can; otherwise it depends on your phone.

    Have a look at ovivo.com

    As near as make no difference free so long as you stick under the data limit.

    Could be a good option. Anyone got experience of them? What's the 3G coverage like?

    Seems to be the vodaphone network which according to web chatter have some issues with there data/3G coverage. May be worth a go tho. My in car sim is still hanging on so got a bit of time to research this.
