I plan to buy the Garmin nuvi 2595 LMT 5" with the U S A on it. I want to buy the Garmin UK and Ireland plug &amp; play street maps . Will they work ?

It should. I have the 2597LMT (North American Map) and it worked perfectly. Made an almost 1000 mi drive through Great Brittan a pleasure. Just remove the microSD card from the adapter, insert it into your Garmin and reboot. Best of luck.

I am not sure about the Garmin Nuvi 205 but I have a Garmin Nuvi 1450 LMT that it worked fine in. Bought it about a year ago and got the North American maps down loaded.

I would check the Garmin website to see if your Garmin will accept the map. But I believe that it will be compatible.

You can get maps for Europe, I'm not sure about lifetime updates. But my advice is don't bother. Garmin is produced for the US. In Europe it's almost worthless. It got me lost all the time. I switched to TomTom, which is European and doesn't work very well in the US, and the accuracy there was almost 100 percent. Garmin is especially bad in European cities where the streets are very close together. In Spain I haven't noticed a single taxi driver who uses Garmin or who uses anything other than TomTom, for that matter.

My experience, two years ago (and things may have changed) is that Garmin's maps, at least for Spain and France, are so inaccurate as to be a hazard. At least at that time their satellite system worked perfectly for North America and miserably for Europe. A TomTom, which I found problematic in the US, works wonderfully in Europe. My advice, ask before using. Unless things have changed, the Garmin will steer you wrong at least 50 percent of the time. It is annoying and even dangerous. Ask a taxi driver. I have never found one in Spain who uses Garmin, and there must be a reason for that.

Hi, I have used mine for years. Been to England, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and Spain & Netherlands. Were never lost & made it to our destination. The best advice is to call Garmin's toll-free # and they explain what the current model has built in plus what else is loadable.

Wayne, I honestly I do not know. I own a garmin and it plugs directly in. You can check for the proper number of pins for your connection to see if it will match. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I don't have the nunvi 205w mine is the 1370 but I really think that if it fits in my nuvi it really should fit in yours. This is great if your going to Ireland. I know my way around most of England and didn't need to use it that much. When I did use it, at times it wasn't very clear. But never the less it beats asking two guys in a pub and getting different directions!

I expect it to work, the output of the unit is generic NMEA and I have used it with 3 or 4 different NAV programs without issue. This is BY FAR one of the best GPS pucks out there. I have not tried Streets & trips, but honestly I'm 98% sure it will work. And work well.

There are lots of contradicting answers on the multiple threads. I spoke with Garmin Support and he recommended the 2577 SPECIFICALLY for this reason. The online description ( https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/on-the-road/automotive/2013-line/nuvi-2577lt/prod122520.html ) also lists both maps.William - If yours did not, it seems you overpaid because the 2597 is the same device at less money PLUS it has Lifetime Maps. Chas / Mark / D. - Do all of you have the device and physically confirmed it doe not have Europe? Again, this is counter what Garmin said to me about 1hr ago.

Yes, the UK-Ireland micro SD card worked amazingly well with the Garmin Nuvi 1490. I used this SD card on a trip to Ireland in July 2013. We drove from Dublin to Cashel then Adare (our base for 6 days) where we day tripped to Bunratty Castle, Dingle, Doolin (to go to Inish Orhe [the smallest of the Aran Islands], Cliffs of Morhe, then to Ennis for dinner), Kilerny National Park, back to Dublin, Howth & Dalky. All in all just over 900 miles over a 10 day period. If you are going to Ireland my three caveats are 1. use the 1490 on roads you know before you go as it can sometimes be querky on how things are named if you are not imputting an exact address (never failed with an exact address or GPS coordinates); 2. driving is on the left with right hand steering - learn my friend Tom's mantra, 'hug left, cross right' (it will make more sense once you're actually driving); and 3. rent the smallest car possible that will be comfortable for your journeys (the roads are extremely narrow, often single lane [outside of cities], and often very winding.

Yes, it will work with a Nuvi265wt. It has a 4.3 inch screen. My Garmin 2595 has a 5 inch screen and it holds well.

Navigon continues to officially sell maps in Europe, but no longer officially supports North America. As a matter of fact, they ended hardware sales and support in North America years ago...friend laid off as a matter of fact. If you're tech savvy, there are unofficial, generic maps available that are supported by this unit, but you'd need to look up which file type and then download it to a flash card. I started using Google Maps on Android and traffic is only tradeoff...Google Traffic isn't quite "fully baked" yet. Stand alone GPS era has just about passed into history. :- (

It will work only if the device was preloaded with the map for that corresponding part of the world, not if it was on a SD card. The other thing that may work is the GARMIN dvd with life time update. I had to return my key since I was not able to install the update (original with life timeNorth America map preloaded, Europe on a one time SD card) The lifetime Europe update would not install. I had to call Garmin to confirm this.

No, this model does not support maps of Europe. There is at least one current Garmin model (Nuvi 2577LT) that does come with preloaded maps of both North America and Europe, but while it comes with lifetime traffic, it does not come with lifetime map updates (although it may be possible to purchase lifetime map update subscriptions for it - I don't know). When I travel to Europe I bring with me my (nearly obsolete) Nuvi 1370, for which I have a subscription to lifetime maps for both North America and (at least Western) Europe. In general for Nuvi model numbers, an "LT" suffix signifies lifetime traffic and "LMT" signifies lifetime traffic and map updates. I believe the "7" in the tens column of the model number signifies transatlantic (maps of both America and Europe).
