I think the maps V660 you have listed are the latest, the western europe map shows later roads in UK than the Uk one but does not appear to show rivers and canels and from my usage shows just as much roads information as UK version

yeh, the western europe map has lots of roads on the isle of wight that nothing older or smaller has. The missing info on western europe isn't so much of an issue.

Has anyone noticed something odd with the western europe map? sometimes it will show streets that don't exist, and name them? not that often, but very odd- nothing to do with my GPS fix or anything either.

The best current map is the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland 660 v1219
The 1256 only has minimal embedded road-speed data.
The v1223 maps are for campatibility with TT5 so don't have any rev6 features.

But 1256 has later road layouts and information, which to me is more important than road speed data which i can easily see on my speedo.

I've tested both extensively in the UK and France and don't find much different road wise. In fact there is a newish estate near me that doesn't even appear on 1256, but does on 1219.

I can only speak of the area that affects me i.e, around the Rushes,Loughborough, the odd thing about this area in V1256 is that it shows a later road layout than the map on the TeleAtlas site.
