I think we need to find out which colours are able to be displayed by the navigation computer. The splash screens don't quite look as you'd expect them to... There must be a colour table somewhere listing 'legal' colours...

Nice image Paul.
I'd guess that the appearance on the monitor is more likely due to poor colour rendition on the monitor itself rather than a limitation in the colours that can be stored in the GIF.
The car monitor requires different characteristics to a PC monitor. For example, one of the prime characteristics must be that it is visible even in strong light and this probably compromises its ability to accurately display colours.
You coluld try increasing the saturation of your image, so it looks too colourful on your PC monitor.
