Default Radar detector ?

The Bar stewards got me !!!! Its time to buy a Radar detector, but which one there are many on the market ? I have been told by a couple of mates who have road angels they say you can't beat them ? but they are over £300 ? Are snoopers as good as they seem cheaper ? seen a SD 715 for £144 including VAT on the net brand new ? But I have heard of people still being done by a lazer even with there snooper activated ?

Any thoughts would be great I want one that is as near to 100% fail safe as poss, but obviously the cheapest that can offer that ?

Origin B2 is the best on the market. Or Road Pilot also has navigation. They are in a differant class to Road Angel & Snooper.

However they only help against 'fixed' area's.

The ONLY way to get around a laser gun, is to get a jammer.

It's your lucky day because there is currently a group buy going on, so you best sign up quick!

With the radar attachment they also pick up mobile units as well
