Which is simular to the one above....
Its my girlfriends birthday and as she has a casette player in her corsa i thought id buy her a CD player for the car but as this mp3 player is so cheap i mayaswell get this.
Shall i bother? will have 1 year warrenty with argos anyway?

wont exactly be sound quality mate, but for 60 quid cant really grumble - although i would have a quick butchers around on classifieds here and on ebay and see if you can pick up a second hand alpine/pioneer for 100 quid or so - better sound quality, better made that goodmans etc etc

Yes im not expecting much for £60, but at the end of the day she has the origional vauxhall speakers in her car so by buying a more expensive Head unit it will be pointless?
Dont really wanna be buying her 2nd hand stuff for her 18th bday hehehehe

well you will notice a big difference if you got her say a 100/150 quid alpine/pioneer over that goodmans.
Plus when you come to sell the car, just replace it with the original again and swap the decent HU over to the new car etc
but then again it depends how much your willing to spend etc etc
