Customer Reviews

Compact And Easy To Use
This is an excellent edition of the long-running AA road atlas. It has copious amounts of the usual information (speed cameras are a new addition) and I still prefer to use this instead of an on-line solution (what's a sat-nav?!).
The main reason that this edition is better than the last is its size. It is more compact and far easier to use in a car.

Excellent road atlas!
I like this road atlas, and would recommend it to anyone.

It's a good size - large enough to be easy to read, yet not too unwieldy to use in the confines of a moving vehicle! The plastic spiral binding looks to be an improvement over the metal spiral of my previous atlas, which was susceptible to getting a bit bent and twisted after some usage.

I completely disagree with reviewer Jones below - the maps themselves are clear and easy to read while still including a more-than-adequate level of detail - and my atlas also includes a town map of Cardiff, maybe Mr/Mrs Jones is reviewing the wrong book?!

I looked at some other road atlases in the shops before deciding that I liked the AA maps best, and this one is good value.

Just buy it - I don't think you will be disappointed!

Don't use this to drive to Wales
Unwieldy, hard to read maps make this road atlas bad enough - but if you want to navigate through Cardiff (and it's by no means easy) don't "come running" to buy this tome . The AA hasn't bothered including the capital city of Wales in its city maps.

The AA must have had an inkling as to where Cardiff is because they built a massive call-centre there but clearly that wasn't enough to warrant putting a city map in this atlas.
