Advantages: Gets the job done, sound quality

Disadvantages: Sometimes difficult to use, CD sometimes jams

This stereo is reasonable i would say. Granted, it doesn't have your bluetooth or mp3 connection or even a usb port. There are no digital inputs whatsoever. However, it delivers great sound quality, especially with the right speaker system, and it also has a CD player and Radio. The radio can be programmed to store your favourite stations and there are other functions such as a loud / quiet setting for quickly turning down the volume when needed and a traffic information system, which can be turned on or off when you need.
There are a few problems though. For example, if you leave a CD in too long and the amp gets too hot it is rather tricky to get it back out, although im not sure if thats because it was fitted poorly. Also, it can be difficult to set up, i find that sometimes i press the "all off" button when i mean to try to change from radio to CD.
The display is very basic and will show you what track number you are on, the time or radio station on the LCD screen and there are a few lights in the keys which add a nice aura around the faceplate.
All in all not too bad if you can buy it cheap, although it may be a little outdated now.

Summary: Good if you can get it cheap, but there are more modern car stereos available
