Well fairly similar to the current ones but different design....
Found on the A4 just next to the shell petrol station, here....

Not sure what is different about this compared to the usual boxy ones but I guess something has been improved. There aren't any lines on the road but I'm pretty sure it is a speed cam not a traffic light one. So maybe that is the "improvement"... it doesn't need lines on the road.
Apologies if this is a repost  ____________________ Current - Hornet 600, Transalp 650, X140 Pit, GPZ400R

looks like they have just reduced the face area and minimized the ammount of yellow paint you see when travelling toward's it so they can scam some more money

It's a forwards facing digital camera. |
It's on the wrong side of the road for forward-facing camera isn't it? |

I'm well up for some camera burning

good find on that site
it amused me to see the preston "hat stands" as i remember when they went up, they were removed by some blokes with a white van and luminous jackets and all the drivers thought they were from the council
at least that is what i heard ____________________ "intelligent inattention is preferable to unintelligent tinkering"

I think the best treatment for the speed camera has to be the expanding foam through the small hole. Saw that done to one on a website once, just thought it was a nice easy way of completely FUBAR'ing the internals.
Cordless drill - Check
10mm Split point TIN coated drill bit - Check
Couple of tins of cheapo expanding foam - Check
