Cheap, £150, 2GB on board, SD card support, plug in and hid ipod, bluetooth handsfree from a reputable bluetooth company. What more could you want ?

According to the rather grainy image, it has RDS, so probably yes.

Reviews aren't exactly glowing though?

I never have the stereo on. I just love listening to the exhaust too much.

Yep, I fitted the front panel to my now 10-year-old Pioneer head unit the other day just for travel reports, and it turned out to be a bit flaky...haven't really used it in a couple of years! Think it's trying to tell me something.

However with hardtop on and on a long journey, I find the stereo does come back into its own...particularly when teamed up with our iPod and iTrip
