I would go with navcore 8.412 or 8.414. Use an Iberia map.

Thanks got 414 navcore but carnt seem to get the map to recognise it even with the automatic installer

Keep trying to install maps but my tomtom keeps saying map not for this device ect and shows me the map i click on it again and it says it again. I am using navcore 8.414 im using the automatic install maps with only the 2 files on the sd card what am i doing wrong??? Please help its driving me nuts

Have patched the Navcore or used the SE version?
The map must be activated and a patched/SE Navcore used.

1. Open the map folder & look for a .meta.dct file. No file = map not patched.
2. If map is patched, download [Please Register or Login to download file] . Unzip and copy the 2 prepatched files to the root directory, overwriting common files. Disconnect & reboot.

LATEST POSTCODES Version 885 (GREAT BRITAIN, NEDERLAND & SINGAPORE) [Please Register or Login to download file]
Extract and copy the "Zip" folder to the root of your TomTom.

thank for info but it still only shows the first 3 to 4 digits of postcode very strange. I also have downloaded 2 west europe maps both will not work both with auto installer 885.4009 and 885.4085 both say unable to work on device please select map??:scratch_one-s_head_

1. The only times I have seen it not work was when it wasn't installed correctly.

2. Do you mean 885.4009 & 885.4058?? If yes, the meta codes for both of those maps have not been posted yet, therefore, those maps are not patchable at this time.

Yes i have tryed both of them which the best map version to use for west Europe for navcore 8.414

As said: no meta code, no usable map on the device.
So before you install a map check if the codes are available.
