satnav Sat Nav Nightmare Dont Get Caught Out!If you’re renting a car during your holiday this summer it’s certainly worth paying a little extra for a satellite navigation system, especially if you aren’t familiar with the area. However even with the assistance of modern technology it’s still possible to get lost as a couple from Sweden recently found out when they attempted to visit the Italian island of Capri.

The couple accidently mistyped their destination and ended up in an industrial town in Nortern Italy called Carpi. They only noticed their mistake when they enquired about where they could find Capri’s famous Blue Grotto at the towns tourist office! [Full BBC story]

If you’re renting a car for your holiday, don’t get lost, consider a hire car with sat nav from Sixt.
