Go buy a GPS for this purpose. In my opinion Autoroute will drive you no where but insane
We used Autoroute in Amsterdam for 3 days. Using the Microsoft GPS Antenna supplied with Streets and Trips 2008. AutoRoute Europe was the worst package I have ever worked with and was continuously slow to warn about turns and frequently planned turns the wrong way on one way streets. It was enough to convince me to by a TomTom GPS for the car and what a difference. The TomTom is an excellent product and will certainly leave you much less frustrated.

MS AutoRoute Europe 2007
Easy to install and should work well with the Pharos GPS unit that I use with MS streets and trips 2005.

I'm an AutoRoute NO GPS VICTIM too!
After an e-mail exchange with Microsoft Technical Support, I land in London to find the GPS features of AutoRoute 2007 won't drive my (De Lorme) antenna contrary to their assurances. Next I try to go on line, but find Win XP SP3 has knocked out my WiFi. Finally, reaching the internet, I find it full of blogs from others like me. support.microsoft won't deal with it, linking to some third party site that is no help. HELP? HELL NO! NO MORE MICROSUCX for me!
It WRECKED OUR TRIP.

Greece not covered
Purchased this product because it was the only GPS software that claimed to cover Greece. Well if you are going from Athens to Cornith it looks like it will work well. Don't try to go to any smaller towns. Not covered. Well there goes 40 bucks

Better, but still needs more
I upgraded to the 2007 edition of AutoRoute to see maps in countries not included in an earlier version of the software that I had. Specifically, I was interested in maps of Hungary and Greece. Though these countries are now included, the detail is largely limited to Budapest and Athens, with not much in the rest of the country. That was a disappointment.
About the software itself, I am a real fan. I have AutoRoute and also the US version (Microsoft Streets and Trips) and I use both to create small maps of cities to download to my PocketPC. When I travel, I have all my maps with me with all the important locations marked with pushpins. I wouldn't travel without them!
