We are traveling to the UK (Scotland) and France in September 2014. How up to date are the European maps in this unit?

I would update the maps when you purchase it. I am still using mine with a few small glitches in the maps and it isn't a big deal, but I would update them if I were going to Europe. When I was in Italy in 2012 they worked flawless!

If you are buying used .2010.If you are buying new call garmin and they will update maps to 2014 free one time. You will need a USB mini plug adapter to download to your computer. We have used this unit many times in France uk Scotland and Italy. Perfect? Of course not. Excellent? Yes.

My maps are from 2010 and I am traveling all over Germany, Italy, Eastern France and Austria with no problems. Even down to the very small towns.

Typically, you update the unit for free once after purchase so they should be completely up to date. My best advice is to use the unit out of the box first without updates. It should have some maps in it and work, even if all roads aren't current. If it works as advertised, go ahead and update your U.S. maps right away then update the European maps about a month before your trip. If it doesn't work out of the box, return it and get a new unit right away. Some of the units have problems, it's best to get rid of the lemons immediately rather than try to fix them (I had this problem with a TomTom, once I sent it in for repairs - and they sent me a different unit back - I could no longer get a refund.

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.

I believe you can purchase the 2497LMT with lifetime maps and traffic for Europe, Andrea. I have the U.S. version and really like it. Hope it works out well for you.

I am so glad that you posted this update as Euro updates would have been essential to me too. I looked and found no exclusion to suggest they weren't included. Very naughty of TomTom ! Worth a challenge if you can put up with the attitude of the customer service staff. I had a similar experience with the purchase of a refurbished TomTom which suggested that it had the latest maps. They weren't !!! They were three updates out of date immediately. Buyer beware.

I will install the international map for you. Just tell me with country you need when you order it. Thank you

Does it or doesn't it include updates of European maps? Can TomTom set the record straight on this?

The numaps One Time is actually used to update previously purchased European maps; the Amazon listing is a bit misleading. The nuvi 200W is compatible with European maps, but you will probably want to buy this product: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055XNWJI/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B008JWSTC2&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=17Q8W3CVYRVHXHPQXVWT. It is a microSD card that fits into the 1/2" slot in the left of your unit and will automatically put the European maps on your device.

The screen is fairly large and visible, with good detail. Yes, it includes Belgium, Holland, and France in the European maps. Some users have stated that the European maps only show "details" when you get into the local area, but I don't have any idea why this would be so or even if it's true or not.

Yes, with the current maps the Garmin Nuvi 370 works great. Very simple to use with easy to use menus. You do need to make sure you get the Europe maps which includes the UK. As another reviewer said spring for the lifetime maps updates. We used ours several years ago on a trip to Scotland and Wales and it worked fine. Following the directions got us where we needed to go even driving on the left side of the roads!

The maps on my card were 2010. We used it in 2013 and had to work around several areas of Norway. With the adapting of those countries to EU standards you will see a number of changes and with construction, particularly in Norway, I suggest you pay the extra for a new chip.

There were no European maps on this unit. You can check the description on garmin.com to check that.

Hello Chelsea,Mine bought in the US didn't have it, but it should probably exist some plan with European maps.RegardsMichel

The one I bought was set up with North America maps. I am sure you can obtain European maps. If you buy in Europe, I don't see why it would not have European maps. Garmin is world-wide, with a good selection of languages. I just bought a 50LM, five-inch, which is cheaper and I like better. For English, 50LM has Samantha who speaks very clearly with an American accent. It does not have traffic though. I haven't used the 2455LT traffic feature yet. Garmin has so many models that it is easy to be confused.

I used it traveling from Germany to France just last december. Coming back to Germany i realized some major roads where outdated, it was as easy as hooking up the tomtom to my mac, create a username on the lifetime update for my unit and there, updated maps for free!!! Beware that they are quite heavy updates, so depending on your connection speed it may take a while. Feb 24, 2014 by joshzaid

Good Eveining, The GPS is normally the current maps of USA and CANADA. I would assume that they would be the up to date ones. For the updates you would probably have to speak with the manufacturer. Unfortunately the cost is your decision. There are pros and cons for GPS so i would just think about if it is worth it to you financially. Thank you.
