I tend to sit about 80 now due to all the camera vans going around these days.

If you have an android phone I'd recommend you get the tom tom speed camera app, it's free and has given me a helping hand a few times. That's what I use for the gps speed indication.
I have been catching up on old Top Gear episodes and I can't believe how many speed cameras there were in the UK. Are the roads still riddled with them?

Here in Arizona, USA the speed cameras (there aren't very many) are set not to issue a citation unless one is more than 9 miles over the speed limit. They do this so they don't have to keep litigating the accuracy of the guns. So on a 65 mph highway, I set my cruise control for 75 or 76 which will mean 74 or 75 since BMWs' speedos are two miles per hour off.
