Old model Nextbase 612GW 4K is down to £109 from £200 at Halfords, got one myself the other day.

Make sure you use a MicroSD that is designed for continual writes, Sandisk High Endurance or similar. I've found that 'normal' fast cards which are great for photography can die after about 12 months in a dashcam.

NextBase seem to draw the majority of good reviews if you believe the ones on Amazon.

My wife's car has some unbranded thing but it works a treat, its got clear images even at night, reliable and never gives trouble - its hard-wired in (which is very easy to do and far neater than having cables draped all over the place).

My Jimny has a Garmin sat-nav with a built-in camera which I like, as I haven't got to have several gadgets stuck on to the windscreen.
The only thing about it is that if there is an incident I have to remember to hit the 'save' feature before it rolls over into the next day as the video footage gets overwritten

IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS
