Wont disapoint you, if you require a simple car sat nav, with a few extra's thrown in. I've had a garmin car sat nav for some years and have found it very accurate when driving around the country and reliable. After having it stolen(gutted), I researched other makes and prices to replace the nuvi205 but wanted this time a nav with traffic and no subscriptions (tom tom new live versions upto £10 month) and a brand that is not likely to go bump in the near future, i'd never heard of garmin a few years ago but is a well known in the professional trades/services.

Excellent at what it does I have now had the machine for 2 months and have done over 5,000 miles with it around the UK (Blackpool, Preston, Telford, Waterlooville, Portsmouth and London) so it's navigation and traffic systems are well tested.
