what countries does this gps has for Europe?

I've used it in Germany, Austria and Italy for the five years I lived in Europe. I'm not sure with this version, but mine worked like a charm wherever I went.

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.

No you don't download European maps. But be warn the batteries does not stay charged on the unit. If I could return it I would.

This can be used world-wide if you buy the additional City Navigator maps for your country or region. I'm from Belgium and purchased the City Navigator Europe NT with it on micro SD card. Take a look http://sites.garmin.com/montana/ for additional information.

Yes, any where there is a GPS signal, it works. Have used it in Germany, France, and USA. the Caribbean definitely has GPS.

I'm not really sure, I returned this GPS because it wasn't for North America. They left that little detailed out

No, just North America. Extra maps can be purchased and installed on the GPS

Yes you can load Europe maps as liong as its Gsrmin compatiblie. You can purchase/download maps at the Garmin website.

GPS works worldwide, but you would need European maps, not US/Canada/Mexico. I don't know about availability for NI. Be careful if buying online to get the maps you want, or you may end up spending extra to get them. The 540 does not support removable memory cards.

You can read reviews on 1370 Garmin nuvi, people speak of generally positive experience. I just bought it and although it did have European maps, I don't know what exact countries it had - I decided to use the free Europe map update download to get it up-to-date. What I found is that it does not have sufficient memory to hold the whole Europe map! So you can either chose your countries (they have Italy + Greece), and add others - I was not interested in Balkans since I go to Italy, but I think they had coverage of whole Europe except for Russia, so they certainly had Croatia, Bulgaria and other Balkan countries. If Garmin covers those, it should work there just fine. You can try to enter some address there from here to save them in Favorites - some hotel where you will be staying, etc, and see if it finds it. That would give you an indication if your device has the coverage of your country of destination. I did that with all my Italian hotels now, 2 weeks in advance of my voyage, and it feels reassuring :) You could visit their site http://www.garmin.com/us/ and read more, and register your device. Then it will know what you have and will prompt you for maps/accessories. Bon voyage! Anna

No, it has US maps only. If you want Europe maps you will need to buy them separately.It looks like that in US this model is named "VIA 1400M" and Europe it has name "Start 20"

dear Anth, I am so sorry, but i don't know. First I purchased a "map" for a Garmin, and didn't have a Garmin, so i returned it. Then I purchased a used Garmin with Europe in it, and took it to Europe May 1 to 30 2013, and used it with my google maps i paid for on my Verizon cell phone. i often used them both to find things, along with the map i got from AAA. Best of luck! Susan

It is one inexpensive and wonderful GPS do not know about Europe, you can probably find some software or load maps from computer. But it is all ready for North America

I have the Maps of whole of USA and Canada with updates, I do not have maps of Europe. I assume that one could buy maps of UK & Europe from Garmin or Amazon by down loading through your computer.

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.

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.
