I'm not looking to spent £600+, but what's a decent Double DIN Satnav stereo for ideally £200 max?

There are a lot of unbranded ones from Hong Kong on ebay, but I'd rather stick with a branded make of known quality.

Any ideas? I wouldn't rule out second-hand if it was in great condition and complete.

Any particular one? I'm quite clueless about ICE stuff.

Don't think there's much around brand new for under £200, second hand is probably your only option.

If it's for prelude then I wouldn't go for one with sat-nav built in. I have Alpine IVE-W530BT. I know it's over 200gbp, but... It offers sat-nav as an option. However when I put this stereo on it's place I realized it is too low for sat nav and it wont be practical.

Yeah, I imagined it would be.

I did consider that, but it'd be fine for on the motorways etc, and then I can always have the voice on for in towns and villages etc. At round abouts I'll only need to glance at it on approach.

cant remember,

it has that tech that mirrors your android screen

so if your android is using co pilot for example it will mirror that on the stereo screen

i was looking at a few a year ago
