Very Hot deal, 1xtra and USB and AUX for £40 can't be bad! I know you need the DAB antenna but still, great deal.

I wish all cars still used this sort of stereo instead of the big bulky factory fitted units that you can't remove (not without great effort and expense). This is part of the increased agenda of planned obsolescence by car manufacturers to shorten the lifespan of cars, cars nowadays have dual mass flywheels that start to break after 60,000 miles, complicated engines with complicated management systems, turbos and superchargers that require clean oil, variable valve timing, diesel particulate filters, swirl flaps, EGR valves, electronic stability management, most have timing belts, climate control systems that break and are prohibitively expensive to fix. The list goes on.

In my opinion, from what I have read and personal experience, the best cars to buy are simple naturally aspirated 90's- early 2000's Japanese petrol cars, and simple 90's-early 2000's German diesels and to a lesser extent basic French diesels (especially the naturally aspirated Peugeot Diesels). Avoid cars with DSG, Semi automatic, electronic automatic gearboxes. CVT can be ok in some cases, but proper torque converter auto's are best (Aisin brand auto boxes are probably the best). £500-£1000 gets you a good old Nissan, Honda, Toyota or VW/Seat/Skoda or Peugeot/Citroen n/a diesel, I regret buying a mid 2000's more complicated car, I should of stuck to my 1993 Micra that doesn't go wrong, and can be fixed very easily and cheaply. Lecture over lol :smiley:

Why does driving an older car make u a chav? Maybe some people are so vain that they need to make themselves look better driving a new shiny car they dont even own, but most people are just happy getting to work not on the bloody bus!

Im ordering it so meeeeeeee ty op hot hot hot

mind you im driving a 54 plate Ka which cost £300 hahaaaa

Damn I was going to post this but was too afraid of the usual idiots whining about it not being double-din, doing the ironing, getting you a girlfriend and curing your acne. Seems my reticence was more than justified.....

who still use this type of stereo, most cars now have a futuristic touch sound system

Be aware that no DAB aerial included

Any dab & Bluetooth stereos?

Sorry I have not seen or used one of this for ages

could someone elaborate on why extra DAB antenna is required, how much to fit, buy etc

DAB is on a higher freq than FM and needs an aerial of its own, you can buy them that stick on the inside of your windscreen and have a lenth of cable usually terminated in a SMB plug that plugs into the back of the radio,see here another £20

Worth it for forty bones. I can finally get rid of my CD collection :stuck_out_tongue:

OOS :disappointed:

Chavs don't listen to DAB

Why its not £20 ?

Bought, thanks!

if it had blue tooth would be awesome price, needs hands free these days

​MPG has barely improved over the last 20 years. Emissions on the other hand have improved drastically, but reduced emissions come at the cost of MPG, hence why MPG hasn't improved.

​Also nearly all cars from 12 years ago till present eat engine oil. Factor that in too.

yeah its really worth buying a new car over an older one and spending in excess of 14k more to gain 10 or 20 extra miles per gallon :smirk:

People not driving modern rubbish.

Modern cars are tripe anyway, boring as hell :disappointed:

You, sir, won the Internet today. Early nineties J tin is unbeatable. Personally, a '92 Eunos Roadster as my classic/ track car and a' 97 Impreza turbo as a daily of sorts fulfil my needs anyway. Stick a Bluetooth clarion and some Infinity speakers in and it'll sound better than any factory fitted system I've heard in the past 5 years. Besides, 2 grand for 0-60 in under 5 seconds and 4WD is properly cheap :sunglasses:
