The Tom Tom ONE XL Europe is, in my opinion, a very good way of getting around. For someone who has a terrible sense of direction and a distinct inability to read maps and road signs this is an essential. I found it easy to use, with straightforward menu's and instructions and clear audio to ensure I wasn't distracted from the road. Always a bonus!!! It looks good, isn't intrusive on your screen and gets you to your destination safely. I didn't think the battery life was brilliant but if you have your charger and no need for using your cigarette lighter you don't need to worry about this. In my opinion value for money is excellent, anything that can save me getting lost and wasting a lot of money in petrol is worth the cost.

I have the UK-only version of this and find it OK, but sometimes the routes it plans out are just plain silly. You have to check where it is sending you and often re-route yourself before you leave, I find.
Advantages: fast, upgradeable, reliable, robust, costumisable, portable and much more Disadvantages: confuses speeds at times, battery power loss while switched off
