Snooper S8100 Models

In total there are two different Snooper S8100 sat navs these are: S8100 Truckmate (for trucks and HGVs) and S8100 Ventura (for motorhomes and caravans).

While both models have the same features e.g. a 7-inch touchscreen display, digital 'Freeview' DVB-T2 TV, Bluetooth, FREE TMC traffic updates and FREE sat nav map updates. The different models are preloaded with different software, which are designed to get different motorists, or more accurately, different vehicles safely from A to B.

If you drive a truck or larger vehicle such as a high-top van then the Truckmate S8100 with its truck attribute database is the model you need. On the other hand if you regularly tow a caravan or drive a motorhome then the Ventura S8100 is the model to buy.
