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.

It worked fine on my Garmin Nuvi 505, and I expect it would work fine on your model also.It makes a big difference in performance

It has maps for North America and Europe. From my experience with Garmin North America maps include United States and Canada. The usually specify if its just United States. You can also check there web site and see what maps are included. Hope this helps.

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.

I think you should check the manufactures website. www.garmin.com but I used my U.S. bought Garmin that was about four years old. I think as long as you have an SD or Micro SD slot it will work. Don't leave home without it.

The model I purchased was the Nuvi 2597. It came with US maps already on it but no other countries that I am aware of. I recommend you can visit the Garmin website for specific information about how to get the software for the particular maps you are looking to add. I believe there are maps for other countries that can be added for approximately $50.00. I personally paid someone to add the maps for me as I am in Costa Rica. I was apprehensive because I did not want to risk paying for the software online, and then if it does not work, I could experience a difficult time being reimbursed. I wanted to know that I was getting exactly what I paid for, so I chose that route. I hope this is helpful. Good luck with your search.

I have not yet even started using it in London, yet, leave alone outside UK. Sorry, I am unable to help you at this point. I may need that sort of help when I start using the world map when I visit Uganda and Zanzibar early next year. I wish I could help.

As long as your adapter is not defective, have no fear of frying your Garmin. The only issue I am aware of for this particular adapter is that it's not as widely compatible for the Nuvi models as the seller/mfr claims

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 do not know for sure. When I first got it it seemed to run fine with US and Canada base maps that came from factory. I updated those using the Garmin updater software tool. I put a 4gb micro SD card it it from my old unit but have never seen any indications that I really needed it. Try the Garmin website if you need more info. I am very happy with the thing. Bigger screen and faster, better menu system them my old unit.Good luck

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.

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.

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. :- (

Hello,it works well in UK & Australia if we per-install UK Maps well and also you can use it in US if we pre-install the US Maps well. Of course,we can teach you how to download and install Maps of different countries,thanks for your attention.

Yes, according to the website: Preloaded street maps Yes (Transatlantic).There are a variety of Garmin GPS devices that come preloaded with mapping not just for the United States, but also for Europe. Any nuvi that ends with 70, 75 or 77 in the model number will have preloaded mapping for North America and Europe.

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.
