I was going to purchase one of these cards as I live in Southern Spain. I decided to wait until the maps have been updated correctly as the latest version does not even show the A7 motorway around Malaga which has been open for about nine months. If the main motorway in Southern Spain is not shown then, there is little hope for secondary roads.
I have informed the company responsible for producing this map (Navteq) but have heard nothing.

I bought this map sd card when I went to go and visit my inlaws in Portugal. Without a doubt I had no problems getting around, especially when my inlaws live in a very rural cental part.
Unlike other reviews of this product, this map is more upto date than the uk one, even after I have updated it through the internet. Where I live, the uk map does not show a dual carraige way that has been open about 3 years. Yet in a not so update country like Portugal It got us every where we wanted to go. I have not tried it in Spain yet but I am due to go soon, so fingers crossed it will perform as well as in Portugal.
If there was a downside it would be, that it does not give you advanced warning of speed limits or speed cameras, but there are constant road side reminders of speed limits and obviously you don't need to speed.

GPS SD Card
28 Jan 2008
The SD card works fine. One problem I had is this is a micro SD
card so it needs an adapter to fit in the SD card slot on my
Garmin GPS. The micro SD card came in a Garmin package but no
adapter. There was an empty space in the package where it looks like their should have been an adapter. I was leaving for Spain the day
after I rcvd the sd card so I had to go to radio shack to buy an
adapter. The company needs to specify whether the package contains
and adapter or if you need to purchase it separately.

Garmin Spain Maps

In general, a great add on product to my Garmin Nuvi. We drove around southern Spain and I found it an invaluable tool, especially when trying to navigate through larger cities. At times there was some confusion as to the direction to take, but that might have been related to the signal quality at the time. Bottom line, if you are driving in Spain and you do not want to rent a GPS unit, buy the maps and take your Garmin Nuvi with you.

Garmin GPS Spain & Portugal Maps
20 Jun 2010

My wife and I always take our Garmin Nuvi with us whenever we have to rent a car on our vacations. We have been to Europe on two prior different occasions and on those two occasions we used regular paper maps. We just got back from vacationing in Spain and Portugal this month and before we left we purchased these Garmin Maps to try our Garmin Nuvi. We did take paper maps as a back up. I am happy to say, we didn't need our paper maps. The Spain and Portugal maps were not only a time saver and precise, but they were easy to use. They even made driving in small town roads really easy. We were able to find all of the towns we wanted to visit and were able to find major hotels, landmarks, and attractions that we were looking for, just remember that if you are looking for a list of similar items, such as "beaches". For example, in Portugal after realizing that you have to type in the word "Praia" all of the beaches we wanted to visit were listed. We made the mistake of typing in the name of the beach like Selama, but were taken to the actual town center and not the parking lot for the beach. Once we figured this out, getting directly to the beach was a breeze.
A second tip I would offer when renting a car in either country, is to use the your Garmin's "Where Am I" feature before driving off with your car from the rental car parking lot. This will give you a chance to "save" that actual location and make it easier to find when you return your rental car to the same location. We did this and I am glad we did because there were no signs directing you to the rental parking lot at the Seville train station were we returned our car.
I was really pleased with this purchase and highly recommend it for anyone planning to rent a car in either country.
