Disklok Thatcham
category 3 device
THE STRONGEST AND MOST
EFFECTIVE FULL COVER STEERING WHEEL LOCK IN THE WORLD
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Disklok is the
most visible effective full cover steering lock available. Its
full steel construction makes the Disklok durable and very
strong. The unique benefit is that it spins under attack to
reduce leverage and prevents forcing of the vehicles own
steering lock. It fits in seconds and cannot be removed by
cutting the steering wheel rim. It is without a doubt a highly
visible deterrent with proven performance against would be car
thieves.
- Prevents
air bag theft.
- Spins on the wheel under attack to reduce
leverage.
- 3 year guarantee.
- High security attack tested steering wheel lock.
- High visual deterrent against car theft.
- "Thatcham" and "Sold Secure" approved.

Bel 990 Radar
detector
Note : The
Bel 990 is being replaced with the updated and improved Bel
Target Euro
550 - Made specially for European drivers
"The BEL 990 was the clear
winner ... all the laser and radar guns were spotted with time
to react - its maximum range was longer than the runway."
- EVO Magazine, January 2000

A patent-pending, industry first! Digital PLL Synthesized
Oscillator delivers the ultimate in frequency accuracy and low
noise oscillator performance under all operating conditions

Patented BEL technology delivers four times the K band
sensitivity and 15 times the Ka band sensitivity when compared
to harmonic mixer technology used by major competitors.

The "no compromise" solution for the most sensitive
X/K/Super Wideband Ka Radar detection today - without
sacrificing sensitivity on any portion of critical Super
Wideband Ka. (Patent Pending)

All tuning parameters are calibrated against the precision PLL
frequency synthesizer to provide complete, accurate, and
programmable coverage of ALL radar bands.

An improved, second generation in undetectability. Only Shadow
Technology II provides complete immunity to the Interceptor
VG-2 or any Radar Detector Detector.

Identifies Laser signals beneath the "noise"
threshold for extended detection range and early warning.

Twin Laser ports with front and rear detection diodes capture
diffused energy far outside the main laser beam. This insures
superior off-axis coverage and the widest
"field-of-view" for 360° protection.

BEL's Advanced Protection SystemTM with Shadow Technology® II
incorporates the first use of Flash Microcontroller technology
in a Radar/Laser Detector. Flash technology provides the
capability to reprogram the detector's software as the threat
of new Police traffic Radar monitoring technologies, such as
Spread Spectrum, emerge.
BEL's Advanced Protection SystemTM with Shadow Technology® II
provides the highest possible capability to adapt to new types
of Police traffic Radar monitoring, which could prove more
difficult to detect with conventional detectors.
BEL's Advanced Protection SystemTM with Shadow Technology® II
is you assurance of having state-of-the art Radar detection
capability
Flash technology, together with 12 digital to analogue
converters and an 8 channel analogue to digital converter,
provides the ultimate in digital control of all detector
functions, and the flexibility to provide industry-leading
performance - now and into the future.

Geodesy
- GPS
based protection device (Radar & GATSO)
Beat the speed cameras legally
With
the number of speed cameras likely to triple in the next few
years, is there anything I can do - short of slowing down - to
avoid a fine?
Yes. There are
several high-tech gadgets that can be fitted to your car which
will alert you to speed cameras ahead. Radar detectors banned
in America but not in this country - are the best known. There
is a whole range readily available, typically costing between
£200 and £600 , but their effectiveness is open to question.
They cannot detect all the varying kinds of cameras and are
susceptible to further advances in police technology. What is
interesting, however, is that they appear not to be used by
lunatics hell-bent on flouting the law. A recent Mori poll
suggested that those who used detectors were actually less
likely to be involved in an accident.
Is there any other way of reliably and legally locating
cameras?
Yes. A company called Morpheous has introduced a device called
the Geodesy tat is entirely legal and, if kept updated, should
reveal the location of all
fixed radar, laser and Gatso sites in more than enough time
for you to be able to check your speed. Its price £374.
Tell me more.
In essence, its no more than a global positioning system
(GPS), which uses the same technology as satellite navigation.
The principle is that it knows in advance where the cameras
are sited and, once plugged in, will use satellites to
determine the position of your car relative to those cameras.
When you are within a mile you are warned with increasing
urgency.
But what about all the extra cameras that are being erected?
It comes with a desktop modem connector that can be used
to download information about all new sites.
Anything cheaper?
There are several free access websites giving the locations of
cameras, including the Association of British Drivers (www.abd.org.uk/cameras/map.htm)
and www.ukgatsos.com, for Gatso sites only.
What are the catches?
Mobile cameras. Though these cost less than fixed cameras,
they are less popular with the police because they
require more manpower to operate. The Geodesy is powerless
against them. It also has no answer to standard police road
checks, nor will it alert you when a police car has started
monitoring your speed on the Motorway. It's at its most
effective on major urban routes where traffic speed and volume
means an increased frequency of accidents and where fixed
speed cameras are therefore likely to have been placed.
Is there any campaign to cut the number of speed cameras?
The AA says cameras in genuinely dangerous areas command
public support in excess of 70%, but it is concerned that such
support will be eroded if cameras are used simply to raise
revenue. It says cameras should always be prominently mounted
and clearly signed.
What do the police say?
The Association of Chief of Police Officers says speed cameras
play a major part in reducing deaths and injuries at accident
black spots. And with the government raising huge sums of
money from the cameras, don't hold your breath for any U-turn.
Safety
first with Geodesy
Kent-based
company Morpheous Ltd have come up with a device that could
improve road safety and save you pounds in speeding fines.
It’s called Geodesy and it gives owners advance
notice of any imminent encounters with a speed camera.
The
location of virtually every speed camera site in England and
Wales is stored in the company’s database.
Then, via small, dashboard mounted boxes, Geodesy
owners relay their position through GPS satellite and are
warned, by a series of flashing lights and bleeps, when they
are approaching a camera.
You can even add new sites to the
database yourself by storing their locations as you pass them
and downloading them later through Geodesy’s desktop modem
interface.
As
well as saving you money and points on your licence, the
Geodesy also has distinct safety benefits.
Many camera sites are located at accident black spots
and the system’s advanced warning gives you plenty of time
to slow down safely prior to entering these dangerous areas.

 | Cister Automotive
alcantara gear lever boot
In order to complement the cars blue
alcantara interior, it was decided that a matching gear lever
boot should be installed.
This unit was custom made by Cister by disassembling the
original black leather boot and creating a template in
alcantara. Careful removal and disassembly was required
as the existing plastic base frame was re-used. |
