Sounds expensive...

Get yourself an old video cam that takes analogue inputs... (I have a Panasonic NV-GS50)

And a 19 quid bullet cam from honkgong...

Made a suction mount from an old bath toy and some ali plate....sticks on up to 100mph...

i have been looking at mini Dv camcorders with av in but they go for about £130 on ebay. and then i need a cam and mic.

i have also looked at that dogcamsport version. very nice it is, but the whole package is £210 with a 2gig sd card
hmmm choices choices what do you think it will look like on a 32" lcd tv? once recorded.

Strap your mobile phone to the car with duct tape. works a treat!

Seriously though, I made a wee mount for my video camera and attach it to the roll cage, so don't need bullet cams, etc. Not too much vibration and careful positioning behind the passenger seat means that it is not too much of an areodynamic brick.
