I was a memebr for some years and there was a limit of six discounted race tickets, from memory I got about £6 of each one which virtually covered the cost of membership

Thanks All, I know they don't work in europe but -

1.  we want to use it as a speedo as ours is v. dodgy and the unit might look like a red rag to a gendarme.

2. we can calculate average speed through the toll sections

3. there are some hotspots that I know (nicked before) that the french use for lasers on the motorways near calais (surprise surprise) that i would like to programme in on the way down.

Cheers

I know the french police have a big no no on radar detectors - big fine, confiscation that sort of thing but what about GPS blackspot units?
