Hello everyone
I've been using the 660 for many years but have had to change it as it can no longer cope with Europe maps all in one go. I can either download France and south or Belgium and north.
Not very helpful when you ride in the Ardennes regions of France, Belgium and Luxembourg.
Having a nightmare with the 595 but came across John Heath's incredibly use guide to the 590 & 595. What a lifesaver.
Many thanks John.
Hope I can be as helpful to people in the future.

Re: Hi from 595 new user in England
You are most welcome. I wrote it because I got the same headaches that you got in switching from a 660 to the 590.
I now regard the 590 as the best device for navigating point to point routes. The 595 comes close. Certainly more trustworthy than the XT !
Any problems, just ask. Where in the UK are you - roughly ?

Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

Gloucester.
I'm not sure you realise just how much time you've saved me (and others).
I was about to buy a Nav 6 I was so frustrated.
You saved me at least £400 (music to a Yorkshireman's ears eh?).

I agree, it's a great guide. And welcome to the forum. It's very helpful too.
