Cheeky bug8ers!, that looks like a home made label on the disc, and as Metroguide doesn't support auto routing on your GPS, you will also need Metrowizz to upload the maps from Metroguide to the GPS to make it do that.
 
Will work fine on the Quest in conjunction with MetroWizzz (MetroGold is even better). However, audio instructions for roundabouts will be as if it were a normal junction, i.e. "turn left" rather than "take 1st exit", the on screen representation will be as with City Navigator so you'll need to glance at that if in doubt. That's the down side. The upside is that the tiles sizes are as per the older City Select products which suit the Quest better enabling long European tours as the route corridor is much narrower using less of the limited memory in your Quest. The bigger tiles in the recent City Nav products use lots of memory for areas you don't need when following a particular route. Loaded size for the UK will be fairly similar, it's when loading maps around long routes that you'll notice the difference.

As said previously, it looks like a pirate copy anyway.
