Needs a good clean, which will be happening this weekend.




Told you clarkson was in it  :signLOL:   :P





and a couple of my 'friends'





Lovely head unit, slightly slow boot up but plays radio/dvd etc while initialising so only about a 20 second delay really. I really nead to upgrade my speakers now to make the most of it but it sounds very good as it is with cd/dvd/mp3. Radio reception is not faultless though, so I tend to use the freeview for digital radio.

The picture quality from freeview is loads better than it appears from those photo's. I didn't bother setting the camera properly and just grabbed a few quick shots.

Unfortunately not no, the freeview unit is a separate bit of kit - twin tuners and twin ariels, seems to work very well so far. The previous onwer had it all installed and wanted to take it out for his new car so I offered him an extra £500 to leave it all in. The freeview box isn't cheap though, much more than a normal set top box type.

Is that the F700 or 900?

Looking at one for my next stereo - I'm guessing you've got firmware 2.0. V1.0 was AWFUL :( Sooooo slow.

Great website with LOADS of info :)

PS - car needs a wash ;)

The fine art of diplomacy is telling somebody to "fcuk off" in such a way that they actually look forward to the journey....

It's the 900, nice unit but I have no idea how it compares to other unit's on the market. It is much more stable with the latest firmware though, but it is basically a pc so has the odd moment of madness if you try and get it to do things while it's still booting. Will post pic's of the freeview ariels.

My front ariel is tucked up behind the rear view mirror, can't see it without looking for it, here's the rear one
