ICE doesnt have to be expensive these days though. Can pick up a CD player for under £50 which is half decent. Just dont go buying no brands, goodmans or Alba. JVC should do the trick.

Put a set of speakers up front if theres space and thats all you'll need. Less than £100 will sort you out for the winter months.

Look in the free-ad papers or on Ebay for cheap Alloys/tyres

The best way of making a stereo in a car sound good is bass. Lots of it. You can get a kit with amp, box, sub and wiring kit for less that £100 from here.
Well worth the outlay I reckon!

Ive got a Kenwood HU (old) hooked up to a JBL GTO amp into a set of 8" Pioneer Coaxials. Ive got no space for a sub but the Pioneers do a good job. Running the factory tweeters straight from the HU adds just lifts the sound stage a little.

Er? Why?

Re: My new (or not) Car!
 

For budget stereo that sounds good, get a jvc head unit and jbl speakers/amp/sub. Could get a whole system for less than £200 to include all cables that would sound sweet. Or just head unit and speakers for a ton should do it.

Switch for the ignition/fuel pump is a good idea though I doubt many people would chose to steel that civic!!

Just get a pipe like mine on bike, then you don't need a stereo.

Cars should be stripped out, tuned up. Then you can f### off the chavs in their bean-can special stereo sound shopping trolleys.

The fact its got no security at all makes it a sitting duck Phil. Old cars are more popular to steal due to it being so easy to do so. Bend the door back, pop the lock and into the ignition in moments.
