We wanted a Sat Nav system that would cover the whole of the UK and Western Europe (all roads), and was portable so it could be used in all our cars.
This unit fits the bill exactly, and was also very good value for money!
We invested in a few extra power cables and have had them 'hard-wired' into the ignition (instead of using the cigar lighter/power socket) which makes the installed unit much neater with no cables visible.
The unit is very easy to use and gives clear concise directions and has been tested on two cross Europe trips and numerous UK journeys.
The only issue we have had on two occasions is where it seems to get a little 'muddled' in cities. This happened once in Aalborg (Denmark) and once in London, where it told us we were at the destination but were in actual fact about 1/4 mile short in both cases. We were actually near enough to the destination that we could easily find where we neededs to be.
Do not use the blootooth functionality so cannot comment, as we have full hands-free kits in each of our cars.
For a cost effective, portable Sat Nav solution this is great value and comes highly recommended!!!!!
