free garmin updates

[ooh-la-la]

Is there anyway i can update my gamin sat nav for free? i've just had a look on the net and they're asking for for new maps which is more than i paid for the thing!!!

I don't see the need to update maps. There probably isn't too much changing from one year to next that justifies it. If you do travel a lot and hit one of the new layout roads, surely you can folow the new road and signs until the sat picks you up again. Similarlynew housing estates can generally be found, albeit not right to the door.

ow becky i wish that were the case but i think my one must be really old, it tries to make me go down one way streets the wrong way and once even onto a rail way line that crosses the road. It's getting to be a nightmare as i'm turning up late and i get really anxious when i'm driving, i really want something i can depend one. I might just sell it and get one with free updates
