I have been after a Sat Nav with built in European Maops for some time now as I am planning a road trip around Europe later in the year for my honeymoon.

My first instinct was to go for a Tomtom as currently it is the most well known Sat Nav on the market and everyone you ask seems to own/recommend them. However I thought i'd try and save myself a few quid by taking a chance on one of the other manufacturers, and I stumbled upon the Garmin at a good price in Carphone warehouse one day.

The first thing that struck me was at how easy the Garmin was to use - testament to this being an instruction book containing only a few pages which you don't expect when buying gadgets these days! Having owned and used the product considerably over the last 4 weeks I am very impressed, and to me is just as good as a tomtom and am sure it will get me around Europe no sweat.
