Basic car radio .. For my campervan

I am looking for a new radio for my VW campervan. The existing radio has no visible display, which makes searching for stations less than easy.

I fancy getting a new radio, with at least some sort of display, so need some advice.

Is it worth going for a DAB radio in a vehicle, or do they suffer from any kind of signal loss, while on the move?

If a DAB is not recommended, which radios are good, perhaps under the £100 level. In my car I have only listened to a CD once or twice, so don't think I will need that in my campervan.

Any model recommended ... And what company offers good value products. I know Halfords is the obvious choice, but no doubt there are better online stores.

  • My local car scrappie was taking the radios out of cars that have been sent to them, and selling them on nice and cheap.

    You say campervan - DAB signal in the wilds of Scotland are not the best, so depends where you are driving to!
