As for the CD changer, I'm going through the issue of uprating my sound system and am currently looking around. It depends on what you want out of it. My Jeep has a brilliant system which holds 6 CDs in a changer unit and one in the head unit, the great thing is that it all reads MP3. This means hundreds (thousands) of tracks are available to you.

The standard Rover changer (in glove box or boot) only reads standard CDs so you get a max of 130 ish tracks. As far as I know the standard 75 Audio equipment is all similarly restricting.

Having 2 teenage sons often in the car (Jeep) the audio capacity that MP3 brings is terrific and running through a very powerful Sony unit makes it almost fun. I am looking to put the Sony unit in my 75 as switching from Jeep to 75 I notice only too much the poorer sound on the Rover unit.

Oh, and by the way, my Sony unit also gets LW for TMS!!!!! wouldn't miss it.

Cheers

David.
