    -r worked for me. But it was skipping a bit, but not sure if that was due to the low battery at the time.
    Be nice

    You plug it into the cigar lighter in the car. I haven't used my batteries yet.

    Battery life is stated as 2.5hours..
    But it also comes with a mains adaptor, and as Rikki says, a car cigarette lighter.
    Havent checked the length of it tho to see if it would stretch to the headrests. I guess no chance if you wanted it for the back of a 7 seater lol
    Be nice

    Mine was in perfect condition. They have removed all the dvd players from the boxes so I would assume yours was handled by a "saturday" worker

    Mine didn't look as though it had been out the box. If it had, the polythene bag containing the player certainly hadn't been opened.

    Some cars have a cigar lighter in the back now too, but the lead is quite long.

    Mine has a scart lead too and it enabled us to watch one of the childrens christmas dvd's at Mums by plugging it into the television.

    Does anyone have the catalogue number? I can't find it on their site.

  • They are £79.97 now in my area, I phoned to see if they were in stock and were told they had gone back up in price today.
