The footage from Nextbase’s 512G is incredibly clear thanks to its high-quality, 1080p HD lens. It’s also the first dash-cam to come with a polarised filter to reduce sun glare. The in-built G-sensor will record footage in the event of a crash and is even activated if your car is hit while parked.

The Pure Highway 400 offers an easy solution, as it is one of the few adaptors that come with an earthing lead which slides under the roof liner – most require you to pull out some interior trim. The 12V set-up takes just a few minutes to install and occupies minimal space. The interface is easy to use and the sound quality excellent.
