Hard to go wrong with this unit. The maps are awesome both overview and 3D. There are too many features to mention but they all work well and are easy to use.

would be useful. After much research I found the traffic alert facility is free for life on Garmins and the reviews on their systems seemed good, so I ordered a G Garmin nuvi 300T on Amazon which was the cheapest price I found (£179). The T after it means this one comes with a separate traffic alert bit…but more of that later! On opening the box, the system is very small and light (about the size of playing cards) so great for pockets etc. It comes with a free carrying case, plus USB cable, and in car charger; which other systems often force you to buy as extras.
