Does the Mfd show the station/track number with this head unit fitted?

Main one is changing the head unit back to standard, I had an all singing all dancing one in it for the last few months but I never use any of the extra functions and never really liked the look so put this back in...

Bought a replacement MFD off eBay as mine has gone duff, if I get around to it I am hoping to put in my decent drivers seat soon. Got a few plans for over winter, just need to actually stop using it
Bollocks, things are not going well....it stopped playing CD's today, just spits them out

Yeah I do but they are too big to drop it more I ran 40's on my old one and it was spot on ![](/board/images/smile/thumbs.gif)
Hopefully new tyres will be happening before next summer ![](/board/images/smile/smile.gif)
Edit - Here is my old one with 40's on.

There was a local 'Cars and Coffee' meet this morning so decided to take the Corsa this time as the TT got no love last time ![](/board/images/smile/lol.gif)
Sun was very bright and I only had my iPhone so the pics aren't great but it's looking super clean ![](/board/images/smile/cool.gif)

Corsa has been stashed away in the garage since the day of my last post, was a nice today so decided to bring it out, pump up the tyres and give it a spin.
Few plans for it this year but the weather is going to have to warm up first ![](/board/images/smile/look.gif)
Pictures from today, not been washed since September last year but still looking alright ![](/board/images/smile/smile.gif)

Drove to work in it today and probably will tomorrow.
Only issues currently are a slow puncture on a rear wheel and my CD player still doesn't work but both easily rectified.
Trying to decide where to go with this, the rear drivers corner is a bit of a mess, little bit of rot on the arch and the bumper has been scraped and touched up badly, I think I am going to get this sorted in the next month or so assuming it isn't going to cost to much.
Later in the summer I would like new tyres, coilovers and to refresh all the ball joints, track rod ends etc on the front end.
Currently in full saving mode for a wedding though so don't really want to take the piss spending too much this year, car is going no where so there really isn't that much of a rush.
