After a cheap, but decent sat nav and this one seems like a decent price at £84.99

http://www.cdiscount.co.uk/SoundVisionandSatNav/SatNav/garmin-nuvi-200-wide/f-407-178793.html

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this navigation unit or any bad experiences with Garmin in general?
Cheers

i bought the older version of the garmin nuvi three or four years ago.
it cost me a couple of hundred pounds at the time, but it still works.

Good enough for me Lee, cheers!
Sorry to keep asking questions but would you say the 200w is okay mate? Or is it worth upgrading to the 215 but losing the widescreen?

the 200 is cracking if you want something easy to use for the uk. i wouldnt personally bother with the wise screen tbh, you dont tend to look at them whilst your driving so screen size isnt an issue unless your blind. plus the smaller the easier to store. the 200 or the 205

Think i'll stick with the 200 as im only going to be using it in the UK and at that price, cant complain.
Thanks for all your advice

no problems mate, also with halfords and garmin if it dies within 2 years of purchase they replace like for like, unlike tomtom who you send away for it to be repaired

i sell garmins all day long, "the whole if they go wrong swap them for a new one is so much better"
maybe consider 205w instead if the 200w as the 200w is last years version and may need to be undated straight away
