"At the online price you cannot go too far wrong with this. Software for navigating it is a little clunky but sound quality is good and, fitted in to a 2008 T5 Transporter, was a perfect fit to replace the factory unit without any need for an additional fascia - just required the harness and aerial adaptor."

"I hadn't been looking for a new stereo until the one originally in the car developed a fault, but this is an improvement.
It is easy to operate with nice clear controls and has lots of input choices."

"Great value for money, got it in the sale, looks great in my Vitara, easy to use. You can connect your ipod/iphone you just need to connect a double jack (which you can buy for a few quid from Halfords. I used the store fitting service and they couldnt be more helpful, fitted it on the same day as i ordered it online. Fantastic! Excelent sound quality, the dyanamic setting on the equalizer is awesome!!"

Pros: very good value for money, good sound quality, 2 usb inputs, can read and play music files from a memory stick, option to add a bluetooth add on
"If your looking to replace your double din car stereo with a modern up to date unit with front and rear usb inputs for ie memory sticks ( can store up to 40 albums or more on them ) and the option of a bluetooth add on ( the jvc add hands free kit works very well indeed! ) then this unit is a simple to use well sounding piece of kit ! We have installed about 15 of these units and have proved to be a good all rounder and at this price from halfords a real bargain indeed ."

"Purchased this in the hopes that it would given stock speakers a bit of chance to shine, and by god it has. The quality is good, both hardware and sound wise it's brilliant with a decent EQ and a plethora of other options. The HU shines blue and can be dimmed, accepts aux, USB and CD which have been brilliant thus far (just ensure your USB drives are FAT formatted)
With my car (corsa c) I had to get a double din kit an you will most likely have to get a wiring harness for your car. But now it is securely in and gives the car a whole better aesthetic appeal, for the 100 I got it for... Definitely worth the hassle and money if your head unit is a bit sub par. Recommend!!!!"
