No, only minor changes you wont even notice, if you use mapshare your get
all the same corrections back again and more.

I use mapshare, as does my son-in-law. We have made a few changes and
none have appeared on our maps.

Just as a general point regarding all makes, new maps will incorporate
new roads and other changes that map sharing systems won't include. From
what I've heard of mapshare, for instance, it lets you change things
like speed limits and directions of one way streets, but there's no way
to add a completely new road, or turn a crossroads into a roundabout.

Within a few miles of where I live, there are a couple of bypasses that
show on the new maps that don't show on the old ones. On average they
save five minutes on journey times in the rush hour. Multiply that by
all the new roads in the area I cover, and it's noticeable, especially
on long journeys.

Does it have the roundabouts on the A1 removed?
And what about the new layout of the A2?
