Amazon are selling them for £188.60..
Everyone else who was selling it for £199, Currys etc have put the prices back up to around £234 post Christmas. Good product, not overly expensive as such but this just demonstrates , again, what a rigged price looks like........
i'm not really knocking retailers, from one perspective, for maximising profit in a sellars market for this product but my guess is the profit they make is a very, very "healthy" one. Basically we are being ripped off....no surprise really.

Hi,
I have a feeling that Amazon price, won't be around for very long, as they do change them quite frequently, often for no apparent reason.
My advice to anyone who is considering buying a European version is to grab it while they can... IMHO you can't go too far wrong buying from Amazon anyway!

You can only buy the Teleatlas WE map from TT (which at least includes the Canaries) but that's a damn good price. |

One V2 & Rider are the only "dual map" units & accept either. |
