Got my car back tonight after being in the bodyshop just over a week.
It seems that the slight knock did more than just graze my bumper, my offside wheel must have taken quite a bang as the geometry was way off.
So, my in-car camera has saved my insurer many, many thousands as the bill for damage to my car included - repairs to gouges on bumper, repairs to small grazes on paint on wing just above bumper, new suspension & geometry check plus a couple of new tyres.
So thank goodness for the camera.

not too bad at all really think I'll give it a go on the way home from work and see what results I get :slayer:
Are you using the T-Eye now? Looking into one myself but would like a good image for night if at all possible
might want to turn your volume down someone has a bad taste in music

Yep, still using the t-eye. Not sure if it's still available but roadhawk do the same cam - rh2 (very expensive though)

Which model of Camera is the one used by Andy Monty and Most Easterly Panda? Image is good on a night, And speed and GPS co-ordinates is a winner
T-eye
well, old torchy ended up being a bit of a disappointment, just not recording properly in the end - but was good while it lasted.
Looked around ebay for something better & came across http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1080P-H-264-Vehicle-Dash-Camera-Car-Video-Recorder-HDMI-/190421129826?pt=UK_Gadgets
Which is a proper mini camcorder.
OK, so a bit pricier than the key fobs etc but hoping it's more robust.
Great screen mount, flexible lens, swivel display, auto on/record with ignition, recycle recording.
Top resolution is 1920 x 1080 @30fps. There is also an option of 60fps but the res is only 848 x 480 and drop the res to 320 x 240 and the frame rate is 120fps!
Whatever, it's a neat little device to always have on charge in the car, always recording the driving, battery always ready in case pictures need taking.
Going to give it a test run over the next few days, see what it comes out like. Will post comparison pics later.
