Garmin Nuvi 250W Widescreen Sat Nav System (UK And European Maps)

Bought one of these after my TomTom just packed up, my friend had the more expensive version which i must say was rather good, this however is not so impressive, firstly it seems to chose the most ludicrous routes to some destinations, for example on a trip to the Alps i knew we had to head towards Remis, but my sat nav was trying to take me over 200 miles out of the way on an alternative route.
The constant and non switchable "mobile safety camera zone" warnings are annoying and force you to turn the sound off, thus missing your turnings when you need to concentrate on the road

Has sent me the wrong way to Cardiff airport on a massive detour.

I'm only giving this two stars because it's good for finding addresses as long as you know roughly where you are going, otherwise it's rubbish, my new car has OEM sat nav, i used to scoff at the idea of paying £1600 for built in sat nav, but i now see the value.

Have owned this model for 10mnths and have had no probs with it at all. Gets you ware you want to go and also detects speed cameras. Very good unit

I don't currently own this sat nav, however I have borrowed one from a relative on several occasions and I can say that it is a very good sat nav almost all of the time.
However, sometimes if you are driving listening to music and you have the mute button on the sat nav it can sometimes be difficult to tell where it is telling you to turn.
Other than this, a very capable and easy to use sat nav. I would seriously recommend. ****
