Cheap and cheerful rider to pillion comms

Is there such a thing? Spending a couple weeks going around europe this year and would like some sort of comm between the gf and myself. Ideally id like the autocom 200 set but this trip is going to be on a tight budget so really need something cheaper if it exists?

Doesnt matter if it runs off battery etc just dont want something that will be un-useable over 30mph and whistles with the wind all the time (spend £7 on a set from lidl....yep utter crap lol)

Would be ideal if it was voice activated but appreciate this is prob why the autocom is £100

best if its available in the uk or can be delivered to the uk.

Cheers chaps

I also tried several cheaper alternatives, but I absolutely have no regrets now that I bought an Autocom system. The sound is just so much better. It is particularly nice to be able to hear what you sound like to others, so that you know when the VOX is really working. You really do get what you pay for.

The Autocom UK website http://www.autocom.co.uk/ says they're selling the prior model for half price. I'd strongly recommend you buy it. That's exactly what I did about 3 years ago when I bought close-out of the model before the current ones.

bugger it just ordered the 200 kit

This may sound cheap but Lidl have just been selling a radio system for about 28 quid but I do not know anyone who got one or what they are like.

Can't you cancel or return the existing order? The website says only 100 pounds for the 200 kit. http://www.autocom.co.uk/Autocom_Clearance_Sale.pdf Regardless how much you end up paying, these systems are absolutely worth it regarding quality intercom and other audio.
