Product Description

Packed with millions of points of interest (POIs) and maps for the UK and Ireland, the 205W is compact, versatile and easy to use.
Simplicity and safety
n�vi 205W comes preloaded with City Navigator® NT map data for the UK and Ireland. Simply touch the colour screen, key in your destination and n�vi takes you there with turn-by-turn spoken directions, 2D or 3D mapping and smooth map redraw rates. Digital elevation maps show shaded contours for an understanding of the surrounding terrain. In addition, n�vi 205W 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® 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.
n�vi 205W's advanced Cyclops speed 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 speed cameras, variable limit or red light speed cameras across Europe, it gives an audible alert, overspeed warning and speed limit information. n�vi 205W also comes with Garmin Lock™, an inventive anti-theft protection system that uses GPS to lock to a secure location of your choice.
Traffic avoidance
The n�vi 205WT model adds lifetime traffic alerts to provide dependable delay information and keep you aware of jams, accidents and roadworks on your route. These alerts are informed by real-time data from reliable sources including the Highways Agency, police traffic control centres and more than 8,000 traffic flow cameras and sensors on motorways and trunk roads across England, Wales and Scotland. This service is broadcast over a national network of FM radio stations to ensure an excellent reception.
Your traffic is always a toggle away. Just flick between your navigation screen and congestion delay information, reassured you will be guided safely to your destination. n�vi 205WT's versatile navigation works with the traffic alerts to report on the tailbacks and suggest a better route around the delay.
Enhanced navigation
n�vi 205W 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.
Other built-in travel tools include a JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, a currency and measurement converter, calculator and more.
