Hi achichon - what do you think sets part the owlcam from what we have available here now?
(Edit: just noticed it does front and internal but not rear)
As I have an my18 on the way - am I right in thinking that if I buy this from the US I could use it here?
Thanks -

this might not have rear camera recording, but as an overall i'd much rather have this with front and in car security camera, with gps, internet connectivity 24/7, mobile phone msging, live on mob view, video stored in cloud, etc etc...
i mean i don't know about you guys but down here anyone who hits someone from behind is liable so i'm not that fussed about the rear. i guess that if you are parked or away from the car it will make a difference. but i am totally more worried about the in car security than the rear camera. so for me this is the best option, obviously it will vary from person to person depending on your needs

Hi have blackvue fittted front & rear and I'm very pleased 24/7 recording and once I'm home I can link to my wifi and down load any recording if needed. I can also get the same info off my phone it a great camera. It cost me just under £400. which when you've paid nearly £60,000 for your car it's worth the money for the protection if the police or your insurance company need it.

I know you all know this already, "the importance of a camera" but i've just gotten myself out of a VERY sticky situation with another driver due to a dash mounted cam.
At the scene he admitted his fault... Which i ecorded. he slept on it and by lunchtime the day after he'd been in Hospital all night and was claimimg for loss of earnings and not his fault, he had completely fabricated the whole scene, Of course i didnt admit admit to having footage at the time so i let the whole story unfold. I'd also been on the DVLA MOT Checker and his veh was without an MOT and SORN'd.
The insurance company were quite aggressive and on his side, oh how the tables turned when they were faced with one blunder after another, they don't even check with the DVLA to see if the vehicle is in date for MOT or TAX, The assessor deemed the car unroadworthy due to bald tyres alround which were also cracked with age and showing signs of wire banding.
Any way, if you havent already, get yourself a camera.

I carnt see the front camera or rear when driving I just forget I've got them.
There's some good stories why cameras should be fitted, when I change my car I could have the cameras taken out and put in to my new car. I think before long car manufacturers will fit them as an optional extra. I also think your better having them and not needing them, then not having them and needing them, if that makes an sense.
