The quickest way that springs to mind would be to get a Garmin Etrex and connect it to the serial port of your laptop (assuming it has one) which could then feed your coordinates to something like Microsoft Autoroute. I don't think it would tell you to turn left when you're supposed to, but it would only cost in the region of �120 buying everything from new (excluding laptop of course)
