I have just purchased a NEXTAR sat nav system from Florida which I was assured would work in the UK. Does anyone know how to download the data for UK roads and what card I need to buy? (No card received with it). Has anyone else got one of these? Hope I was not ripped off. I have e mailed the company and am awaiting a reply but it is taking a while.confused

"Yes, sir, oh yes sir, it will indeed work in the United States of England, sir. Yes indeed. Thank you sir, that three hundred dollars."

"Goodbye sir."

AFAIK it will work in the UK, i.e. it will receive a signal - but it won't have any maps. I had a quick Google and found nothing on the subject.

I thought the UK was the 51st state - so surely it must be included in the USofA map?
