Does anyone use these and have a recommendation of which one to buy? I've decided to get one and a quick ebay reveals 750 million different types, any advice?

Joel.

I've been looking for one aswel. Been watching Car Crash TV on channel 5. They seem like a very handy thing to have but like you say there's too many to choose from.

There's a few reviews knocking about. I think it'll be worth spending a little extra on them, I'm worried all these cheapy £30 ebay cams will be terrible quality.

My insurance co offered me a £40 discount if I took a dashcam. I declined as I dont want my exquisite road manners to be viewed by anyone!

Joel just wants to record plane crashes and people falling off mopeds. :wack:

Actually he told me he was going to mount it on the rear quarter to check out "da babes"

I like the front and rear recording camera's after a car crashed into the back of me a few years ago but a lot to choose from.

I have an SJ4000 cam from eBay, paid £56 + free postage. They pretty good for the money and quality is ok, not as good as a Go-Pro, but you get what you pay for. Have a look on Utube for comparisons with SJ4000 and Go-Pro cams. There plenty on eBay, ranging from £50 up to £120, all the same model and spec.

Hi,

Just to let you know that a number of our insurance schemes do offer discounts for a range of in-car cameras.

I take it these companies specify what cameras have to be fitted? I'm not sure it's something I would want to commit to for insurance discounts, but it would be handy to know what types are approved and why?

I got one of these just to record road trips....... Cost me £14 delivered from Hong Kong....
