Garmin Nuvi 255 Traffic Sat Nav with UK + Europe maps Sat Nav & GPS

The Nüvi 255T from Garmin is your personal travel assistant for life on the go.

The Nüvi 255T leads the way with a large 3.5" wide screen and a full set of maps for 33 different European countries,getting you to your destination on time and safely. Its longlife battery lasts nearly 4 hours before you have to recharge it through your cigar lighter port, meaning you'll never be left in the lurch if you get lost.

nüvi 255 comes preloaded with City Navigator® NT map data for Europe. Simply touch the colour screen, key in your destination and nüvi takes you there with turn-by-turn spoken directions, 2-D or 3-D mapping and smooth map redraw rates. Digital elevation maps show shaded contours for an understanding of the surrounding terrain. In addition, nüvi 255 accepts custom points of interest such as traffic blackspots and post offices and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. With HotFix^TM satellite prediction, Garmin calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.

'Where Am I?' gives you details about your location in a flash. Simply tap the car icon for your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, nearest address, contact details for your vehicle rescue service and directions to the closest hospital, police or petrol station.

nüvi 255's advanced Cyclops safety camera database helps you travel with the confidence you are driving safely, responsibly and legally. As you approach one of hundreds of fixed, mobile and temporary safety cameras, variable limit or red light speed cameras across Europe, it gives an audible alert, overspeed warning and speed limit information.

nüvi 255 also comes with Garmin Lock^TM, an inventive anti-theft protection system that uses GPS to lock to a secure location of your choice.

nüvi 255 comes with photo navigation to revolutionise your sightseeing. Plan trips to landmarks and attractions simply and easily before you set off. Choose and save location-tagged photographs from millions of Google Panoramio pictures in a wish-list of places to visit. Then, at your leisure, select a photo destination on your Garmin for turn-by-turn directions straight to the scene.

The Nuvi 255T's other built-in travel tools include a JPEG picture viewer, a world travel clock with timezones, a currency and measurement converter, a calculator and more.
