[FISH EAGLE]

Hi Peeps,

has anybody had any experiance with using Road angel 7000 navigator (formally 6000) as a mate has one he can let me have cheap.I have done a search on here and can't find anything bad about it.??

would not be without mine it has saved me a few times with the speed cameras and the sat nav part is great as well.
cheers shaun

it's a great bit of kit, i've had mine for 6 months and had no prob's with it. and it's good if you use mmap as it's built in to it

The AA got in a lot of sh!t over the fact that in there latest Road maps they published known speed camera positions!

All speed camera loctions are piblished online by the old bill.
After all its claimed cameras are a "saftey device" not a money making venture

I dunno mate, just read somewhere a while back that they were illegal in the UK an its a points/fine for having one.... They are illegal in Europe... i think you get proper fcuked for having one there!

i had road angel in my truck...we work with police,one day traffic saw it,made me take it out,as said further up if it detects its illegal,BUT only if switched on,but i changed to tom tom and get the "safety camera update"lol

[mark g8awo]

They are only illegal if use sensing technology to detect the presence of a camera..If i am right the angel uses a database in which case they are legal to use at all times except in switzerland where even having the database on a sat nav is illegal and you are forced to drive over the unit

[darkdezigns]

yep thats wot i said lol,detector illegal,but only if on,
