Does anyone have a dash cam?
I need to buy three of them. I’ve looked for threads on them; the ones I’m looking at are about £100 but with hard wiring kits and fitting it’s going to be £150 each.
I’m not planning to sit down and watch the footage of a night time in Ultra High Definition. Do people think that’s what I need to spend to prove fault? I mean, cars are quite big on a screen!Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Currently being ripped off on both car’s insurance. They hiked one by £200 for 9 months when we got a new car. I think makes it about £650-700. And the other one just auto renewed at silly money - nearly £900! :eek:
I should make that a job today.
We have four vehicles between three of us now. Should i have a fleet policy?!
Still reading about dash cams. The HD is good for making number plates legible.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Aye, there's some insurance madness going on at the moment.
I pay £220 a year for Mrs McT's much more expensive and much higher performance car, versus £650 for Mother McT's bland automatic saloon.
Both are the same German manufacturer. Neither of them have any claims or convictions.
Don't understand this at all.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

Same here. We have three cars between two of us, costs £650 a year for all three. They are significantly cheaper. And they still allow us to bargain with them. We also have gap insurance on the same cars. Both of us have full no claims.
My dad's car insurance rocketed the insurance year he was due to turn eighty. Massive increase, about 40-50%.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?
