Garmin nuvi 200W

When I was recently in the market for a Sat Nav system, there were so many available, that I barely knew where to start. There were a few specifications that I had in mind when looking for a suitable GPS system. I didn't want to spend too much money to begin with. For months previously, I had been observing reviews and prices of sat nav systems online, and what was clear to was the fact that new systems were constantly being released, which meant that prices were being reduced all the time. So I didn't see a point in splashing out on an expensive system, knowing that the price would probably fall before long. I also wanted a widescreen sat nav, simply because they ...  Read the complete review

~~MY STORY~~ I've been considering buying myself a sat nav for months now but just could not quite justify the expence for the limited use I would get out of it on a day to day basis. Then things changes drastically when I got a new job as a delivery driver and realised I don't know where anything is really other than where I live and where I work. So in an instant a sat nav went from being just another one of those gadgets that would be cool to own if I had the money to an absolute necessity. So, then began the hunt for the perfect sat nav. I set myself a very basic criteria that it has to be: Under £100 (I'm still on a ...  Read the complete review

I owned this item for just over a year before a drop on my kitchen floor consigned it to ebay (spares and repairs!) and I upgraded to the 255WT. It was my first Sat Nav and after a lot of research I went for the 200W as I didn't need all the top-end features or Europe maps but I was keen on a widescreen and this seemed a good price (now at less than a ton it's even better) A multi-stop flat-hunting trip in SE London for my girlfriend was a very relaxed affair. The Garmin took us door to door without a hitch and avoided the usual page turning arguments. It's taken me to numerous remote Kent villages and towns and door-to-door to villages in South ...  Read the complete review

Choosing between the Garmin and TomTom satnavs is not an easy thing to do, especially when everyone seems to knwo the name TomTom! To make it easy ill say this, buy the Garmin. I found it much easier to use than the tomtom. Not only that its a very good price as well! Set up is very simple, instructions tell you everything you need to know how to get the unit up and running properly. The unit itself is pretty decent to look at, so its not an eyesore when your driving along with it in your field of view. Build quality is very good and feels like a solid bit of kit. The software itself is very easy and even my dad managed to use it the other day after ...  Read the complete review

The Garmin nuvi 200W is another great entry level Sat Nav priced under £100. The 200W is incredibly slim and has a very nice, sleek design. The inbuilt speakers are very powerful and allow you to hear all instructions clearly. The 200W also has a widescreen which is great for seeing more of the map before you get there, there's also a built in backlight which makes driving in darker conditions much easier. The menus or the 200W are fairly simple to use and are very easy to set up by searching for a street address or just entering in the post code. As well as this the 200W is packed with some great features. The points of interest is a lot more detailed than on ...  Read the complete review
