This is what I have in the S1, £104, Aux in, Fully Ipod kit, remote control, and built in Bluetooth for both handsfree and music streaming. Awesome value, I'm very pleased although Bluetooth is only useful when crawling along.

I've still got the Blaupunkt unit I took out of my Elise if you're interested? Only possible problem is that it is a DAB unit and I haven't got the aerial connector bit. Obviously if you fancy something shiny and new I will not be offended.

Hi Gad-Westy. Re your bluetooth, I assume you can hear them fine through the car speakers, but they can't hear you, because the microphone is built into the headunit and picks up all the road noise?

That's exaclty it. I can shout at moderate speeds and be heard but anything approaching motorway speeds is a no no. I've only tried it with the rood off so far though. It really needs a seperate mic but unfortunately that isn't an option on this unit and even if it were I'm not sure where you'd put it.

Anything by Pioneer, reasonably priced and always good quality in my experience with good bass response - something sadly lacking with the blaukpunkt a lot came with.
