Frequently asked questions

Is a dash cam worth it?

For the price of a tank of fuel, a dash cam gives you independent evidence in a dispute, and some insurers look favourably on them. Reviews are the best guide to the two things that matter: video quality at night and reliability in hot weather.

Do I need an expensive sat nav when my phone has maps?

Phones are fine for occasional trips. Dedicated sat navs earn their place with bigger screens, no data use, lifetime map updates and features like lorry and caravan routing that phone apps handle poorly.

What should I look for in a car charger?

Enough total wattage to fast-charge your actual devices, and build quality that survives being plugged in permanently. Highly-rated chargers from established brands cost only slightly more than the bargain bin and last far longer.
