With the advent of the new highway code in the UK now meaning that as a driver we've essentially been relegated to the status of guilty until proven innocent when it comes to interaction with cyclists and pedestrians, now more than ever I think the idea of a dash cam is all but essential. To that end what is a good brand or model and where is good to buy from? Want a good picture, don't really want GPS location as that's duplication of my tracking system.
Thanks in advance.

Mine is a Nextbase. Had it maybe 4 years and still works perfectly and is easy to use and fit (suzuki fit it for me when I part exchanged for the gen 4). Not sure on the model and I don't think you can buy the same one anymore however they have a few to choose from.
Buying places also very vast - Halford, amazon, argos etc

I have a BlackVue, it's the second one of there's I've had over the years. Small and discreet, it hides behind the rear view mirror. Has a phone app you can steam to (makes it easy to set the frame right). Then you can just forget about it until you need it. Can be hard wired or plugged into power socket.

I have nextbase, quite a few to choose from, just choose the features you want. GPS ones will show your speed, which may be a good thing, or not.

youngest son just passed his test. The car he past his test in had a rear view camera. So fitted a JANSITE rear view mirror dash cam + rear camera to his (new to him) car. The unit clips onto existing mirror. It's not a mirror but a touch screen. You are able to move the angle of the rear view by moving your finger on the screen. records front +back & will record if your car is broken into. The rear cam is a good quality with night vison. Cost about £70 / £80. I struggle to change a bulb but fitted this in a couple of hours. Two birds with one stone. Hope this helps.

The black Vue seems very discreet and I like that but I'm not sure it's worth the premium over one of the basic ones from next base. It is after all just an insurance against the stupidity of others. It's not for starting a YouTube career!
