- Good points:
- The user manual supplied with the Satnav is rubbish, but a better version is available on the internet, also a little unclear what is included in the packages ie. speed cameras...traffic management..and which upgrades are free.

Richard , Tonbridge Always use sat nav
- Good points:
- Excellant really easy to use,took it round Europe and it was really usefull but in Poland it kept trying to send us on a road that had not been built yet and so keeps telling you to make a U turn we had to drive a long way before it came up with a new route so maybe the maps are a little too advanced and it did not spot all the speed cameras.that said I would recomend it to anyone great value for money.
- Bad points:
- You need to be able to tell it you are going on a diversion or the road is closed so it can find you a new route.
