Thought some of you may be interested in a group buy over on the GTIROC forum, they have the price at £300 and that includes the new lazer detector and shipping (to be confirmed)

If any of you are interested just ask for contact details.

Oh poo, just bought one.

Cost me another £99 on top of that (the EVO mag offer).

Never mind - I'm very pleased with it (even though the laser add-on has not arrived yet) and would recommend anyone in two minds to get on board with the group buy Pigme has mentioned.

Evo magazine had a special deal in conjunction with Networx Automotive (www.networxautomotive.com) - £399 for the Road Angel, Laser Detector and Two Years database updates.

This is the one I went for. It was only when I took delivery I found out the Laser Add-On is only just getting released and will be delivered a few days from now (I hope).

It seems to be so new that even the blackspot website does not have details of it yet. There are now pics on the Networx site, though when I looked quickly just now I couldn't find a price to buy it separately. Probably just a matter of days though before it will become available from all the normal places.

I'll post something when I actually get my hands on mine.

May I have contact details please ?

The best price I could obtain at the Sports Car Show was £379 --- to be increased to £399 so a saving of £20 !
Thanks, ChrisW.

Networx Automotive (www.networxautomotive.com)
are offering a 20% discount to ABD members, if my maths are correct 20% of £399 = £79.80, ABD membership is £20.

Worth it just for the discount!

This is a scan of an ad in the latest edition of "OTR" (On The Road) the ABD newsletter.



If they really give 20% off then it sounds a good deal.

Starting to look a little like a wind up....Seriously if we get enough who want one we could approach a distrubutor for a discount...I think we may need at least 10 participants though.

Clubsport, I saw your post and got on the blower pronto - the guy was a bit surprised at how quickly your news had spread! I've e-mailed you separately just to check if I've been charged the same as you...
