The only.... ?worry?.... I have about a *GPS* dashcam is - if at all one does have an accident (God forbid!) and the police remove the card from your camera the data *could* be used against you, if say you were speeding etc?
Just a thought...

They don't need to do that, they have the right to download the information directly from your car in the event of an accident. This is normally only carried out when somebody is injured, but not exclusively. The dash cam isn't required to find out how you were driving.

I bought a basic Nextbase dash cam from Halfords a couple of years ago The total price was £99 fully fitted. The price included a SD card, hard wiring kit and fitting. The only complaint I have, is that the same deal is now available at £89!!!!! :|

Just upgraded my dash cam to a Nextbase 522GW and rear view camera. Quality is very good from both cameras and the rear does work well without the problem of wiring in.

The only negative are:
    The rear view camera adds width to the installation and it is quite tight getting it into the best position next to the sensor module behind the rear view mirror and in the wiper arc without inhibiting the passengers view too much.
      I had to upgrade my micro SD card from a Sandisk Extreme 32gb to an Extreme Plus 64gb due to the increased write speed necessary from having the dual cameras.
