Car Radio for my CLK 55 AMG

[brfcfan]

Just bought a 2002 CLK AMG, I currently have a permanent smile on my face!

The manufacturers radio is pretty crappy and there is a spare DIN slot above it. Can anyone reccomend and double DIN slot radios they have recently bought, that are bluetooth enabled and are compatible with iPODS for less than £400 inc fitting.

Thanks

£180 plus fitting, should leave you with some change :

I think Kenwood and JVC do a Navigation version in double din for around £575, a tad above the budget but it does give you directions!

Congrats on the new car! Where did you get it? Spec? Assume that it doesn't have COAND if you there is a spare slot in the dash?

Hi mate, am new to this website having only bought the car recently.

I bought the car privately from a chap near Lewes for £9,000. Spec wise its a bit limited really and does not have COMMAND, but has only done 34000 miles.

Dont know why I want a radio because listening to that engine when the throttle is floored is the best music you can listen to.

This was the car on eBay right? It appeared around the time I was homing in on a deal on my CLK55. I was a bit put off by the limited spec but agree all you say regarding the engine (and the noise it makes) which is the real reason we probably bought our cars!
