In my mind I rate a good condition (new) cheap helmet on the same level as a old used one from the stock cupboard that's been dropped/kicked and smacked about
If this was for a bike then I would agree on spending more for better equipment but seeing as it's used 3 times a year at speeds I do in the car anyway it doesn't worry me so much. if I was in an accident that bad that the helmet didn't suffice I think there would be some issues from the rest of me
Open face would have been nice but just fancied a size that fits better
I got a ACU sticker on the back of the old helmet anyway just in case. Not that they've ever checked
