5 DASH CAMS UP FOR GRABS
THE world has gone dash cam crazy and the fact that ITV show Car Crash Britain started a second series last Saturday just proves how these devices play a vital part in establishing the cause of an accident.
In Britain alone there are now more than four million dash cams fitted to cars and the number is growing, which is why Halfords have added the Next-base 512GW Dash Cam to their unbeatable line-up of 25 dash-cams. Described as “the ultimate Dash Cam experience” the 512GW provides high quality images with vivid colours and amazing clarity.
Add 1,440 pixel Quad HD and even when driving at night this model stands head and shoulders above the rest, combining multiple versions of the same image to give the best contrast.
In day time, an anti-glare polarising filter reduces windscreen and sun glare and it’s easy to fit thanks to its Click & Go Powered Magnetic GPS Mount. Want one? Halfords have currently reduced the price from £179 to £149 but FREE sounds cheaper to me and I’ve got five waiting to be won for the price of a stamp. Want one? As usual entering couldn’t be easier. Just send your name, address and phone number on a postcard or the back of a sealed envelope to: CAMERA CRAZY, George Fowler, Daily Star, 10 Lower Thames Street, London, EC3R 6EN by next Thursday. First five out of the sack get the goodies.
Good luck, folks. I’VE got to say… I genuinely thought this was a wind-up when it landed in my inbox.
In fact I was so convinced that someone was having a laugh at my expense that I rang Mini to check it out.
Well it is true. You can now buy a tent that fixes to the roof of a Mini.
Mind you, it’s not made to fit any Mini, it goes on the roof of the oddly large Countryman.
Makers Autohome say it’s: “Perfect for those who want a room with a view or a more luxury camping experience at festivals this summer. Say goodbye to rocky floors, soaked clothes and wellie puddles.” The tent comes in a folding gas springed roof box and is big enough to hold two people.
Made in Italy, it’s sound and rain-proof, features two doors, two windows, mosquito netting, a roof storage area, plus four small folding pockets, a crushproof mattress with a cover and four pillows, touch-sensitive lighting and a height-adjustable ladder with safety clamp.
Mind you, it should be well equipped because it costs 2,837 euros, which depending on the rate of exchange is about £2,400. Details: info@autohome.it or call 0039 0376 99590.
