Collins 2014 Britain Essential Road Atlas

The use of light colours in the maps and a 3.2mpi scale make the Collins Essential easy to read at a glance, but the junction markings aren’t as clear as rivals’. Plus, while you get icons for speed cameras, there’s none for petrol stations. With indexes at the back and front, plus city guides, it can take a while to find the maps you want to read. The lack of a bookmark does this atlas no favours, and we thought the paper quality was a bit cheap.
