Oops read that wrong i thought you said the icn 520 not the 320 so i think i'll kep my 510.Shame it wasn't the 520 though as it's just under a month since i got mine from Tesco's so could have took it back and got that;)

Im still tempted to take mine back. Volume is awful, GPS takes ages to be received even in garden. Think I may have a dodgy unit! Cant hear a thing when driving. Kind of useless

think you may have a faulty unit, tried mine straight out the box and it picked gps up within 90 seconds of turning on. had to turn volume down to half as it was too loud. you do get the occasional duff one though.

Looking at the description on the website it says Uk and Ireland, The only Navman to come with European mapping at the lower price bracket is the 510/520 PREMIUM.

Oh sorry to hear you're still having problems with it Babbler:(
Mine's ok sound wise now i've got used to it and i don't have any trouble with the GPS picking up a signal.The only problem i've had is it's made me go the wrong way sometimes which i suppoose is a major problem:rotfl:

Great price but the only big draw back to me is the inability to import custom poi's to it (speed cameras etc) but i guess for 89 quid you cant complain.

Bought 3 in Wycombe for £89...absolute bargain! Thanks...

Do you have absolutely no sense of direction!

And presumably you don't have them all in use at the same time?
