Good Points

Quick recalculations, simple to use.


Bad Points

£70 to update maps! Not always right, like telling you to take the 4th exit from a roundabout that only has 3. And mine only has Belfast Zoo listed under 'Zoo's', while Chester Zoo is listed under 'Landmarks'.


General Comments

The Garmin Nuvi 300 is neat, tidy and simple to use. It'll generally get you there just as long as you use a little bit of common sense.
I would recommend turning the back light timing down to minimum (15secs) if using without the in car power supply as the battery doesn't last that long. The back light still comes on automatically at junctions etc. Even on minimum.
I would have given it an 8, possibly 9, if it weren't for the extortionate cost of the map updates.
