Hi
@patrickgledhill_1
Welcome to the site... Have you just updated the Map on the device ???
Have you installed the Europe Car Map instead of the Truck Map ???
Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Maps... Current Map ???
Or Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> System --> About... Installed Maps ???
GO 520 Pro... https://www.tomtom.com/en_gb/sat-nav/truck-sat-nav/products/go-professional-520/

Hi @patrickgledhill_1
Where did you buy it. Was it Off Ebay?
The Pro Units as @yamfazman has indicated are the truck maps and your unit should come with the Europe Truck map on it. It does not have access to the world maps so you should not see a list of maps for around the world if you go to the Add Map facility in Settings/Maps.

Thank you both for your answers thats very kind . I actually think i have purchased the 520 GO TOM TOM . I should have purchased the 520 Go Professional. I shall have to retune the sat nav to tom tom and start again. Thanks0

Hi @patrickgledhill_1
Can you check your order details especially the price as the GO 520 Truck Units are more expensive at Circa £300 list pice than the car units. Tomtom do not list the GO520 car unit as the current version is the GO Basic or GO Essential..
Maybe an idea to see what @VikramK has to say as he can confirm which model you have got before you start the process of returning it. Look back here tomorrow.

Hi @patrickgledhill_1
Welcome to the community!
It's not a GO PROFESSIONAL model... The device comes with standard maps suitable for car navigation.
