Free SD card with 2019 UK Garmin nav maps
Discussion
I've just updated the UK maps in my Vantage nav system by purchasing a new set of Garmin Navigator maps rather than pay the rather outrageous official Aston Martin price (a full set for Europe is about £75 from Garmin, UK only is about £35) - thanks go to divetheworld who first put me on to this option in this thread https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&... back in 2019, as a result of which I bought a Garmin Map SD
So if anyone would like to assess the Garmin UK maps to see how they look and perform, rather than recycle the Garmin SD card with the old 2019 UK Garmin maps I'll post it to anyone from PH who would like to try them for free. If you want details on what they do then I suggest you read the thread I posted the link to, above
I think the fairest way is first come, first served. So the first person to post in this thread saying they'd like to try it can have the SD card - once we've agreed who it is then PM me with the address you want it sent to and I'll pop the card in an envelope and drop it in the post. Once more, these maps are just UK and are from 2019.
No warranty, no guarantees, yada yada...you know the drill
Going forward Garmin Customer Service have told me they have discontinued the "UK only" option from the Navigator series and will now only offer full Europe, so I actually had to buy the replacement 2021 UK maps card from a Garmin reseller; in 2019 I bought direct from the Garmin website.
And a thanks to the mod for correcting the link

Thanks for the offer but I would be more interested in what maps you purchased from Garmin was it just an update or new maps as per https://buy.garmin.com/en-GB/GB/p/743228/pn/010-13...
Current maps are 5 years old and most times it indicates that I am driving in a field when I am actually on a new bypass, would be good to see if could update them to 2021.

No problem - maybe someone else might be interested in trying. Thanks for the offer but I would be more interested in what maps you purchased from Garmin was it just an update or new maps as per https://buy.garmin.com/en-GB/GB/p/743228/pn/010-13...

Yes, as far as I know that's the one you need. I'm hedging my answer a bit as I actually bought the UK only, as I said above, but it was a new map from the Navigator series on SD card
As far as I know if you opt for an update you're invited to download a piece of Garmin software, and I certainly didn't do that
