seen what one?

It really is quite simple, just go for a decent brand, Alpine, Kenwood, Pionee, Fusion, Sony, JVC, Clarion, etc. and the more you spend, the better the head unit. Buy the best one that you can afford, but I wouldn't bother with more than £200 for a Mini, as the accoustic properties of a late '50s car aren't brilliant.

JVC KD741 - £79.99 on special offer in motorworld up here, decent head unit too. maybe ures is on offer? they retail other places at 139.99 - 159.99

do what i do, type the name of the cd player into kazaa and add the word 'review' and voila there will most probably be a review or a score out of 10 for it, something helpful anyway
