For me it did. It may be the area that your in.

No Bluetooth

bluetooth on no fixed camera alert and also location of mobile camera hotspots where they are likley to be, if there was a radar gun at the end of your street it will not pick that up

It does not have Bluetooth but one or two models up the chain do. If you spend enough, you can even watch Freeview TV on one model!

As for Speed Cameras:
This model is pre-loaded with camera locations for both fixed & mobile cams. However, you need to update it at some point, via PC & USB cable (not included).

it runs on a 4hr battery when fully charged from home. anything more than this required i would consult supplier

You could charge the sat nav in your house, either via a plug in USB charger or by plugging the unit into a USB port on your computer.
Obviously if it goes flat whilst driving you'll be stuck, but battery life is generally pretty good at ~4 hours.

no get a home charger and charge it there not sure how long the bat life will last

Through the cigar lighter

the 1300 willl run in battery for approx 4 hours.
if your journey time is longer than this you will need to have an electrical connection in the form of a cigar lighter fitted. halfords normally can do this for you.

log onto halfords web site and use the garmin microsite..

Use a telephone.

buy the usb lead

There is a kit with home charger and usb lead and other accessorise which do all you need around £20 in halfords

You can set the 1300 to avoid the following:
*U-Turns
*Motorways
*Toll Roads
*Traffic (think this is a subscription service but check with Garmin's website)
*Ferries

Yes

Some of the older Garmins would only let you avoid 'Major Roads' rather than avoid 'Motorways'. This could often route you away from 'A' roads as well, taking you along narrow 'B' roads instead, which wasn't really much use. The newer Garmins including the 1300 series now list 'Motorway' in the Avoidance Menu. Re-routing away from the motorway will now take you along 'A' roads if they are available. The best thing to do is physically check the one's on display at Halfords to see if Motorway is listed in the 'Avoidance' menu.

If you buy the 1300T (The T is for traffic I think.)

Not sure how often updates come out, but updating during the first sixty days is free.

top left hand corner..unless you turned it off..reset to factory settings or go to store to get it checked...
