Which Camera Detector?

Since getting my 335i and after a few long trips, I think I need some added security / piece of mind and thinking about a speed camera detector / radar gun.

Anyone use one, if so which & your opinions?

Many thanks,
James

Road angel connected is very good but a jammer is even better as long as you don't get caught with one .

My old snooper packed up the other week I just bought a Bel 995. So far seems a great piece of kit, much more functionality. Much better then my snooper 715? cant remember the number

Garage List
V1 for detection - absolutely superb and tells you which cams on the M25 are active.

Novus Alpha - for fixed, mobile and at risk areas. Also indicates real speed.

They both complement each other. The Novus is good for the non-radar detectors and is easily updated via PC.

I drove 50 miles tonight and am really impressed with my detector. My old snooper was good but this thing has WAY more range. Still get. K band false alarms but I can live whith that as it goes into mute pretty quick

£25 quid argos telescope does it for me. Works v well. I will admit, its a pain in the arse pulling into laybys and focussing. Well suited to an e93.
