I bought a Pioneer 4500BT a little while ago, was £90-100. Seems good for the price, has ipod connectivity and bluetooth. Display is a bit basic - just single line and block style digits, but does the job.
I have more expensive Pioneer and JVC units in other vehicles, and of the 2 (no real experience of other manufacturers) Pioneer is my favourite - just seem better to use, so would recommend Pioneer as a brand to go for at any price point I guess, although Alpine are very popular too.

I'd just have a look at what is available on offer from the big brands such as Pioneer and then base your decision on what is going to look most at home in your car. IMHO unless you want to go all out with in car entertainment then even the most basic offerings from the top brands will do everything you need.

Single

Thanks for the suggestions so far - Alpine and Pioneer are looking like good bets.

I picked up a pioneer unit for £70 recently at halfords, bluetooth CD etc, pretty good deal. Seems quite hard to find bluetooth + USB without paying a premium though.

Was an ex display but they way they display them means no-one can even touch them.
