Good Points
Slim and compact

nice big wide screen
Bad Points
Expensive updates
not 100% reliable - take a map as well!
General Comments
Garmin Nuvi 660 is not to be trusted - it will randomly take you on detours which will add hours to your journey! Always have a map and a mental idea of your journey before you set off!
This sat nav has performed reasonably well (I have owned mine for about 2years) and it is great for finding houses etc. at the end of your journey. It's also quite good with the traffic updates although not to be trusted !
My main disappointment is the price of the updates. It is cheaper to buy a new sat nav than it is to pay for map and speed camera updates which I can hardly believe! So, be prepared to fork out over £100 a year after purchase and every year from then on to keep up to date!
