My 660 is now 2 yrs old. I bought a continental safety camera update., When that expired so did the Uk camera datavbase. On connection to the website I received the message that only one device could be connected at one time. several calls to Garmin ... result ... you need to send it back for repair £70 plus. Will I buy Garmin again ... what do you think.

I have owned this system for six months. Although it seems a very good unit the extra wires needed for traffice updates and poor mounting bracket make mounting this unit almost impossible without making your car look untidy. The display is clear but sufffers in strong sunlight and is impossible to see with polarised sunglasses. The safety camera updates are on subscription at a cost of approx £35.00 per year. However, all that aside I could live with this unit if it wasn'' t so slow at giving directions, e.g. you will be on route and approching a major junction and entering a roundabout before it catches up, telling you that you should have turned off two exits before. Garmin would have been better ditching some features, like the bluetooth function for your phone, which again is all but useless in operation and concentrate on making the unit refresh quickly.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Looks good | Too slow, misses junctions. Too many features |

Been waiting for a while to buy a top of the range sat nav i found the Garmin 660 to be brilliant easy to use straight out of the box, The use and pick up of saftey cameras is very good dont speed my self. Bought this at a on site shopping cannel for £198 bargin, had fm receiver, i thought not a bad buy not looked back since.

| Display is crystal clear. Very easy to use | Like all Sat Nav's the dash board position can be tricky. I've placed mine low down near the CD player, you dont get reflection/obstruction on the wind screen that way. |
