Let us know your best Sat Nav foibles for wrong pronunciation. I'm talking blatently wrong, not 'its not how we say it'.

Mine is "Dryclough Lane" - Should be Dry Cluff lane, but the Sat Nav says Driclo lane.

Not sure if this is a symptom of more recent sat navs that say road names as part their directions and therefore its more noticable than before.

My TomTom doesn't like 'Nurburgring' and it sounds something like 'nurbururburguring'
