It's still there, it should be bottom right? If not then:
Menu -> Change Preferences -> Status Bar preferences
And ensure 'Speed' is ticked.

Well one thing you ought to like is if your speed is in excess of that recorded in the map for the current stretch of road, the speed display will flash within a red box.

And if you are very lucky you will also get a short sharp siren just to confirm what the wife had said 2 minutes earlier that you are driving to fast and slow down  ( I presume that feature is available on the 510 just as it is on the 520)
