yep, exactly the same mate, i have heard people getting them from them for £339, doesnt look like the discount is as good as it used to be for some reason, are you happy with yours by the way?

 

[fUbAr]

yeah very happy, i just wish there was MORE speed cameras round by me now to make it worth the money!

You may want to take a close look at one of those first.

Just bought one as well.

Do they recognise hand held speed guns ?

which is a bloody fortune isnt it??

 

[fUbAr]

£100 notes i think

 

[Lee]

The unit knows of all fixed cameras, be it Gatso, Specs, DS2 etc and the laser detector should pick up hand held stuff, but a few regions still use mobile gatso which it cant do without the addon.

 

[cliosportcraig]

But if it warns you and you evade 3 points and £60+ fine then surely its worth £100 ?

Wooooo thats illegal then ?

 

[rugbyfiend]

its a bit of a grey area, if you have it there specifically to jam the laser then yes, they can sell them as in theory you could open a garage door with one. Police can tell though if youre using one as it comes up with an error message on the laser gun and then they can pull you for "perverting the course of justice" or something.
