Customer Rating: Summary: Maps seem good, reception hampers function though Comment: I used my Nuvi 200 with these maps in Spain, France, and Italy over the past two weeks. The maps were always accurate, and the POIs were fairly easy to search despite language barriers. I often had difficulty getting my unit to find the satellites, but I don't fault the maps for that. Just be aware that my unit had much greater difficulty getting signal in Europe than it's ever had here - your experience may vary. Customer Rating: Summary: Made driving in the UK much easier Comment: I've never used a GPS unit before, but with a two-week driving trip to the UK coming up, I thought it would be a useful tool. I was wrong; it was an INDISPENSIBLE tool. We got the UK map add-on, popped it in and we were ready to go. We changed it over to the British voice for fun and was a god-send. Seriously, if I could give this thing 10 stars I would.
It saved my life on numerous occasions and lowered the stress level of driving in an unfamiliar country (on the left side of the road, with roundabouts instead of intersections, driving late at night and on rural roads!) to a minimum.
One time we ran into some emergency construction work in Cardiff and we were unable to turn where it was directing us. However, it recalculated quickly and we arrived at our destination only a few minutes later.
What I wanted was something to get me from A to B in one piece with a minimum of stress. This did the trick and then some. Considering that without this map we would STILL be wasting our vacation time arguing over paper maps and missed turns and trying to figure out the unfamiliar UK road system this little guy was worth twice the price I paid for it.
Customer Rating: Summary: Plug and don't get lost Comment: The Garmin City Navigator SD data card for Europe was an excellent addition to my garmin. The maps were up to date and I had no problem navigating around Germany using the Data Card. Great buy!!
Jim Customer Rating: Summary: nuvi 260 GPS europe map very helpful Comment: We have just returned from 2 weeks of driving in France. The European SD card with the Europe maps for our Nuvi 260 was the best travel investment we made. I was able to drive with the confidence that if lost I could count on the GPS (we nicknamed the voice Molly) to get us to our hotel or our goal that day. Also it made driving in Paris to return our car far less stressful. If you are driving in Europe I would strongly recommend one. They were offered with our rental car for an extra $20 a day so the investment in our own was worth it.
Monte Montana Customer Rating: Summary: Not Very Useful if You're Walking Comment: I bought a Garmin Nuvi 260w as a portable device to take on a walking vacation in the UK. I bought the plug-in card with the Europe maps.
The GPS unit is marketed as a portable unit with auto, pedestrian and cycling set-up options. We were using it for hiking and I assumed the maps would be pre-loaded with the major walking trails and footpaths but it isn't. If you're walking in the UK, you'd be better off with an ordnance survey map which shows the official footpaths.
