  Niall, thanks for your reply. I will check exactly which model I have. I was under the impression that any device with less than 6gb would not update the newer maps?
  Rob.

  If there is insufficient space on your device you will be offered a zone map instead, (which can be changed at any time) for a list of which countries are in which zone see https://uk.support.tomtom.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/21070

  Thanks Niall. I have loaded the SD card and done an update and it says I can order map updates for £39.99, so I assume that it means that the SD card is man enough for the updates. However it said that map updates were available for as little as £9.99......until I went further and it said they were £39.99. I will see if the map share updates have changed anything significantly in my area before I go ahead. For instance there was a new vehicle tunnel opened locally about 8 years ago, the last map share update did not show this. I still can't find out exactly which Tomtom Carminat is in my vehicle, I had hoped that this info would have come up when I loaded the SD card.

  Hi dhn, my Carminat is in a pod on the dashboard, not a free standing unit. I think I have now established that it is a Carminat TomTom LIVE.
