At first, I bought a 3 12GB valid for 12 month sim ...but with satellite view on all the time and plenty of streaming \ gadget playing I went through it in less than a few weeks
I now have a 30gb EE Monthly for £15pm which I thought was a decent deal 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

It’s only coz I have one in the WiFi widget. Fantastic coverage in loads of countries, apart from Sweden & Germany. Not going to tell you it cost £28 then.
Would depend on how much the car eats. If it’s only a couple of hundred meg month you’re paying for a lot of data you’ll not end up using, but that data could be used in an iPad or wifi widget on holiday.

Robse ...aside from the web browser, it provides enhanced info for:
My Commute: Is a feature designed for journeys with a common start point, a common end point, and at a regular time of day. When My Commute is enabled, the navigation system is designed to recognise a commute.
