Hi all do I need to download the UK database or is it included in the european database? I am off to Europe on Sunday but have to drive mostly in UK the rest of the time.
Many Thanks

as noted on the download page, EUR files DO NOT include UK cameras!
you'll need both

To expand on what MaFt said, the UK database is in mph and the European database is km/h.
You will therefore need to download UK & EUR AND setup warnings for both.
If you're using a Garmin, I believe that you also need to remember to have POI Loader set to mph for installing the UK database and km/h for installing the EUR database. _________________ Andy

MaFt, I can see no reference to the European database not containing UK cams on the download site. Maybe me having a senior moment.
I thought the UK was part of Europe except for the £ v |

After you make the first selection you make a second selection.
