Garmin GPS V Deluxe
The GPS V is a versatile navigator that delivers automatic routing and detailed mapping all in a compact handheld GPS. It comes with the MapSource City Select CD, which gives you access to detailed street-level maps of most of Europe with locations of restaurants, hotels and other services. Use the GPS V to look up a location and it will automatically calculate a route and guide you to your destination with turn-by-turn directions and audible beeps that alert you to upcoming turns. You can even switch the display from horizontal, for mounting on a bike or a vehicle dash, to vertical for handheld use.
