Default Road Angel detector info pls help

Hi all, a local cab company is packing up and my uncle knows the owner and he is selling some roadangel detectors really cheap...

Im not 100% sure that they are the latest ones or the classic roadangel, what i need to know is whether they need registration or not? can i just plug them into my ciggarette lighter and they will work? i thought that u only register them if you want yearly updates or not?

im confused please help, i dont want to pass this chance of getting one cheap up!

how much are they worth generally?

thanks in advance!

Hiya,

You need to register to update the RA, which you should do.

A classic is a big bertha, with a small LED screen. I'd pay no more than £190 for one with a lifetime subscription. The new one is much more atractive and features the voice of Tiff Needle *shouts* ROAD ANGEL!!!! (yikes, calm down Tiff) I'd pay no more than £270 second hand. The lifetime subscription is not available on the newer one....do bare in mind subscription costs when negotiating. Obviously condition is a big factor!

Regards,

NS04

Why would you wanna register and not pay the subscription there is no database if not yet populated and when logging on it reads the serial number and cross checks with the database. I would buy the Snooper S4 neo its 250 quid. 6 months free then 4.95 a month. I bought one this week advantage over Road angel is it alerts you to the speed limit at the camera, think about this its not so obvious sometimes 20 30 40 50 60 or 70.

Anyway halfors got a deal on Road angel 2 for 320 quid ends 4/4/5
