Relative of mine is being posted to Germany. He wants to drive from UK to
his posting location and is looking for a Sat Nav. With a budget of Ł180
(can stretch to Ł200), can anyone recommend a sat nav for this purpose and
within budget.

TIA

Understeer is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
Oversteer is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the fence.
Torque is how far you take the fence with you. - Anon.

The Navman N series includes European mapping. My N20 was about Ł160.

PS to fit all the Europen maps on you will probably need at least a 1GB SD
card slotted in.

Is great value for money, and is easy enough for even an officer to operate.
