 Rating:  - Let downBrought this for a trip to Portugal and was fairly impressed... however, having got back to the UK the reason I thought it worked well in Portugal was because I didn't know any better. Over here, this unit has been useless. Finding satalites can take anything between 5 and 15 minutes. Driving around Bedfordshire several roundabouts and roads were not even on the map, despite being at least 5 years old. The unit has also recommended taking "A" roads through town ... Read More Rating: - My first satnavBought this about 9 months ago and in general, pleased with it. No problems whatsoever travelling anywhere in England, but not so good in Scotland. Glasgow, with its tightly packed streets, can be a tad confusing for it. And entering an address can be a bit of a gamble; it can sometimes take you (if you let it) to a totally different town that has the same street name as the one you wanted to go to, simply because it's the nearest one to you. In which case, opt for inputting a post code if at all ... Read More Rating:  - So disapointingI have had this unit for about one month now and I am really disappointed as the maps seem years out of date. I initially put the misdirection down to the odd error in mapping but after using it in a few towns now it is driving me nuts with the number of serious errors. It also has a glitch in that it fails to obtain satellites for hours, unless you reset the trip details and unit then allow it to seek satellites whilst stationary and out of the car. It also goes berserk when it comes to the bad mapping ... Read More Rating: - Lost in ScotlandMmmmm. Not too impressed so far. I bought the Nuvi 250W on the strength of the reviews on here. First problem was that the battery was low and it wouldn't charge when connected via a USB cable to my computer nor using the mains charger I bought for it. It charges fine in the car though. I haven't experienced any of the problems picking up satellites that other people have even though I live in SW Scotland. So far, it has taken under two minutes each time I've used it. My wife took charge of it and she had ... Read More Rating: - London to SwitzerlandI bought this satnav because i was driving from London to Zurich. Generally it was a great piece of kit. The main pros being very easy to use straight out the box (I plugged it in for the first time on the day before my trip), the unit is much thinner than my previous tom-tom and the instructions are clear, not to mention the decent price. The only downside I found on the 800 mile ish journey was that, in some places (rural France and near lake Geneva), the Garmin tried to take me on 'shortcuts' when they ...
