    It is a p reg 1997 estate? the radio is just a tape player and radio a little bit of the front comes off next to the key code button- currently it flashes my registration number?? The radio says 5000 rds e on-

    Four nails gently into the holes, fingers in the tape slot and pull out.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    I've got a Corsa, and a flat battery caused the radio to go to safe mode. It's a grundig car 200 radio and the serial number is GM0200W5663474.

    Appreciate any help with a code

    thanks
    rory
