800 or 810?

I know people will come on and say to get another brand of gps but I really want a garmin

Thats out the way so which is the better upgrade from a 500. Is it worth paying the extra for a 810 or shall I just get a second hand 800?

I would like the bluetooth to upload my roads, its unlikely I will do the live tracking so what are the other advantages of having the 810 if any?

To be honest Andy for how much effort it takes to plug the 800 in and upload/download your rides I'd search for some good deals on a new 800 and save some money!

There isn't a vast amount of difference as far as I can tell.

I'm in the market for exactly the same although my boss (beloved girlfriend) wants to track me when I do a scenic routes home from work so I may not have the choice

This is a really extensive review Andy:

Jury's still out for me. Like Nick said, for the hassle of plugging it in, is it worth it?

I'd say pay the extra and get the 810. Due to it having blue tooth it's easier to import courses etc. Still think my 800 is brill though.
