Off to Majorca in <2 weeks, got a hire car cos it was hardly any more than the coach transfers.
I've got a Garmin Nuvi 200 that I've had for years, the UK maps are out of date and the Europe maps are only major roads.
I'd rather not pay , how do I go about getting a full spain map so I don't get lost as? I assume download and load it somehow onto an SD card that goes in the side?
Thanks for any help

You're just after the Europe NT 23.10 (believe that's the recent version) maps. It's only a few GB so will take you an hour or two to download.
Just make sure you read the sticky's in the Tutorial section on how to update the maps.

Excuse the ignorance but whats the difference between the one you've outlined and http://gpsunderground.com/forum/garmin-maps/16380-city-navigator-europe-nt-2013-10-a.html ?

Not a Garmin user, so you'll have to have a read of the forums. Just make sure to either backup (/image) the SD card or use another SD card for these updates.

It's fine after a few minutes although headlights was the only issue i had, kept reverting to looking left and getting blinded.

Can anybody help me on this?
I have a Nuvi 1340 and require Europe maps.
This is what it shows when I connect it to my PC
I am also showing hidden maps and I have just put up a thread on GPS underground
