The screen are not an issue on the NextBase as you can simply enable screensaver, mine is set for 30 seconds, so no screen is seen after this Iggy/Ieuan

Any chance of a photo of the NextBase or Blackvue mounted in a D4? King of the typo.
MY11 D4 5.0 V8, Bournville, lots of goodies!
Now departed: '85 RR Vogue, '94 D1, '95 D1, '70 SIIA, '97 D1, '04 D2a. All V8, except for the SIIA - but that drank as much petrol anyway!

Thanks. That’s probably still bigger than I’m after, looks like it would be in SWMBO’s line of vision.
Might just get away with it in the Disco, but definitely not in our Mazda 3.
Appreciate the info though! King of the typo.

For a minute there I was kicking myself but the only dual camera Nextbase is £199 and it doesn't have speed camera alerts so I don't feel so bad now buying the Thinkware @ £269 from Amazon - I subscribed to which for years but after buying a few Best Buys that weren't worthy of the title IMHO I cancelled it and tend to research via the net now Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
Still hoping for a S2 one day!

Here is a photo of the Blackvue DR650s-2ch front camera. It doesn't impede the use of the sun visor and you are still able to easily access the power lead and memory card slot.

The more i think about it the more I think I should get one, but the ones I want are very expensive, I dont want one with a screen so looking more at the Blackvue stuff.
I have to say that the screen comes in handy, if it gets dislodged to can easily reposition and see where its pointing.
Personally I don't think you need to spend hundreds on one, you'll kick yourself if in an accident while saving for a decent camera.
I think my Nextbase 604? was around the £100 mark, but is fine. its tucked neatly behind the rear view mirror so the driver cant see the screen or the camera. flew through MOT with it fitted in place and is hardwired in so no plugs etc.Disco4 MY16 SDV6 Landmark Black

Defender 90 200tdi Completely rebuilt.
have to agree that sometimes they ignore some brands. having spent days and days comparing TVs I went out and bought a Hitachi one that wasn't on the list but all the Argos reviews said it was very good (except a couple who had issues but it was swapped without drama and replacement was brill !)
I always think that Which? readers seem to extol John Lewis as the place to shop and of all the places in the Trafford Centre it's usually the quietest ... and that many of them must be the most easily duped when it comes to telephone and email scams.

Does anyone know if the dash cam affects or is affected by one of those Sanef tags for France?
not sure on that ... some countries have rules about their use.

I have not heard of anyone having problems with sanef and dashcam - some reports of DAB interference with Blackvue though
Some info here on Europe rules re dashcams -
