  1. ror You sirry boy Glad you got it sorted now ---------- Post added 22-02-2014 at 14:34 ---------- Good point about not telling the insurance and i totally agree. Its great to have just in case but you wouldnt want to have to use it all the time. If you havent watched any of the footage yet though, igve it a go. The quality is very good indeed.
  2. Why the use of the "" on either end of the word disabled?
  3. Disabled should really. Most of them get extra money to help with travel so really they should pay full. Pensioners though, well thats a bit harsh. They have paid their dues and deserve some help later on in life.
  4. The jump in price is not as steep when you see the difference in quality. Im a tight northerner, i dont spend anything i dont need to but i have to say its very good value for money. This unit also has GPS for location and speed details at time of impact and it also deals with changes in light waaaaaaaaaaay better than the cheaper one. Your probably spot on about the insurance thing but the way i see it is the more detail the better.
  5. Originally i used this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-5-LCD-TFT-Full-HD-6-LED-270-Car-Vehicle-DVR-Dash-Camera-Crash-Cam-Recorder-/171204894000?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27dc9b5d30 But i paid 22 quid for it. Its ok but the quality isnt there. I needed the footage for something but when i looked at it the detail was poor, you couldnt really see the number plate and it was jerky. Its fine for a rear facing camera but for a front one its not up to scratch. I still keep it as a spare though My camera i use now is the one i recommended to the op, this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F2GMUPU/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00F2GMUPU&linkCode=as2&tag=techmoancom-20 and its a big step up in terms of quality and features. Its alos so much more discreet i dont even need to take it out of the car. Its almost invisible.
  6. Are you saying its only ethnics who do it? If so you are soooooooooo wrong. The reason you see it a lot on Abbydale road is because its got a very high immigrant count in the area. Almost every face is a brown one. Go to mainly white areas and youll see similar things but it will be just the whities doing it. It not an ethnic thing, its not a white thing, its a moron thing.
  7. The time is controlled by GPS. To turn off the GPS you need to set it to "closed" but its better to use the + hour and - hours funtion and leave the GPS on. Make sure the time setting is set to 0 or +1, im not sure which. By default mine was set to + 8 hours so when ever i set the time it was always 8 hours ahead. When i changed it to 0 then set the time it worked perfectly. Its in the settings menu. If you have any trouble finding it and setting it im free all of today so i can nip round and set it up for you. As for the Windows 8 problem. The only way around this i know if is to run it in compatibility mode for win xp or win 7. I run win 7 so its not a problem ive personally come across but after a bit of diggin around found a few people who got it to work on win 8 machines. ---------- Post added 21-02-2014 at 10:41 ---------- Ive got one and its poor. It records in Mjpeg and the quality is bad so its relegated to status of spare in case my proper camera goes tits up.
  8. Would that be where you go through admin and they screen your posts before they post them for you? ---------- Post added 20-02-2014 at 12:37 ---------- Not so. I found out about this place via a mechanic i used to use for my (please dont hate me) Renault He has a user id for posting just normal stuff and he also has a business type account where he helps people with more mechanical type stuff and where he has his business on the foot of every post. He told me it was something he had to ask the admin permission to do and in fact ive been considering approaching admin and asking for a separate account myself where i can promote my new business by giving advice and building up a good rep on here that will hopefully transfer to a bit of extra income for the business.
  9. I have 3 accounts on another forum. 1 account is my main one that i post with 2, Is my business account 3, is the one i use for anything sensitive or private i dont want people to know about or link to me. Nothing illegal of course, but if i ever have a problem i dont want friends or family to know of id post using my 3rd account. Ill be binning the 3rd one soon though as the forum has just adopted a system where as i can post anonymously and have admin check and ok then post my question or issue for me. They then check and ok every subsequent post i make in that particular thread. There are genuine reasons for multipul accounts but most fora dont allow it unless you speak to them first and ask for permission.
  10. 19 billion??????????????? For a bunch of 0's and 1's?? The worlds gone insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. They werent found. Iirc the IRA called them in and gave a warning.
  12. @ Ash Ive been supplied a firmware update which gives you the option of changing the speed counter from KPH to MPH. Check your menu, if you can already choose MPH then you have the latest version. If you dont then let me know and ill mail you the (tiny) firmware update with instructions on how to apply it. ---------- Post added 20-02-2014 at 12:00 ---------- Up to speed? In a Lada? I doubt that
  13. Frank Skinner! Cant stand the muppet.
  14. Yeah. And the burgers look nothing like they do on tv either.
  15. I think Mac D's mix coke from syrup and carbonated water. If they do, technically it is watered down.
  16. I was just joking lol. Some people will use anything Give me half hour, i may have some kicking around the house. If i can find it you can have it for free.
  17. If you dont want to spend 6 quid, have you considered using toothpaste?
  18. What ever works best for you i suppose. Do you ask the same thing now or have you changed it at all?
