I'm off to Southern Brittany on Friday and just wondered if anyone had used their Columbus on mainland Europe?

I guess it's perfectly ok and knows you're on the other side of the road and adjusts it roundabout exits and turnings accordingly?

We only have a 100 miles or so to drive from Roscoff but want to avoid motorways and tolls - I trust the route will avoid those if I tell it to?

 

Cheers guys.

 

Used mine extensively... France, Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Slovakia, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary....... No issues

Ditto, in France last week, worked a treat.

As did mine. Took a while for it to realise I was on the other side of the channel but once it realised it was spot on. Wouldn't have been without it!

Mine was fine in France. Try and get the V9 updated maps if you can (not essential).

I may be wrong but I thought there were no toll roads in Brittany?

Brittany was where we were in the summer - no toll roads (or at least we didn't hit any on the drive from Caen or whilst we were there).

Two European road trips with Columbus in my old Octavia and one in current Superb, visiting Belgium, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy. Great for getting you straight to your stopover hotel at the end of a big driving day.

Nice one! I've driven in France many times, but never been to Brittany.

I guess that's why Roscoff to Quimper is almost 2 hours for the 100 or so miles !!

In Columbus I will trust....

France and Belgium use here and it's always been good.

Used mine in France this summer and it was great. Had to take a diversion through some tiny villages due to roadworks, so was really glad to have it.

Well I've been and I came back and considering it's maps and firmware are probably 5 years out of date, it was pretty much faultless. I got sent down a couple of dead end roads in a little village near Roscoff where the main road was closed and roads had been made one way, but it got me all over Brittany Brilliantly!

Don't really see the need to update everything just yet for UK use unless I can get it cheap!
