Anyone got this on their G20 or thinking of having it fitted?
Dealer wants £475, is it any good?

It's not something I've ever tried.

Not saying I'm furiously against them, but once we encourage every car to have cameras, I feel like the big brother thing has gone too far. I've been driving for over 20 years and feel like I know my own limits enough to still have fun driving.

Bad enough some drivers shake their heads because my S3 pops and bangs as I'm overtaking (safely) without having to worry that everything I do can be recorded.

Overpriced. Have a look at a Blackvue dashcam with front and rear cameras, better quality and cheaper.

Also the 3 series now comes with Driver Recorder as standard if you have Park Assistant plus, which does some of the dashcam tasks (records 20 seconds before and after it detects a crash).

It’s absolute garbage, at least a couple of guys on here have bought one and then removed it because it’s so bad.

I can recommend the Viofi A129, great dual camera with an active forum here:

I was planning on getting it (East for any warranty claims, etc) but decided against it after the overwhelming negative feedback on the product and the high price against other products.
