Re: [OT] Satnav for VW Passat




I'm looking at upgrading from my Navman SmartST  - my current version v1.91
is fine for maps of UK and long distance travel abroad but lacking in
detail
in Spain in particular.

Could go for the latest Navman offering or TomTom3 but need to make sure
that its better than what I currently have.

Bit of  a longshot - but if anyone has Spain on their maps could they have
a
look to see if there are street level maps of places such as Calpe and
Altea.

Before I use the CC again!

TIA

John
