Most sort's really. im not much for cd's in cars because it's the same thing over and over. I listen to the radio mainly. Beat FM, 2FM, Today FM and KCLR FM. If it's a cd it's probably Wolfetone, Dubliner's, Christy Moore and new music.

Do we have a stalker in our midst?

little bit of everything, always try and catch the news(no access to it during working hours), a little bit of Frank, Dre, and on those long journeys to Dundalk it has to be The Stone Roses

just curious, i alot of cars owned and at such a young age, thats all!

how is your collection of vw's now?

how many is it at now?

I listen to a bit of everything, but on long drives it would have to be a bit of Damien Rice and Fall Out Boy.

I do believe Marv has a Lionel Richie album in his car.

I would like that back some time

I am so grateful for my iPod cable!

I listen to... Hmm... Cradle Of Filth, Opeth, metallica, HIM, Type O negative, funeral for a friend, in flames, iron maiden, megadeth, pantera, lamb of god, pearl jam, deftones, Alice In Chains, Black Sabbath, the cult, eden maine, fear factory, massive attack (yeah...), My Dying Bride (fav!), Neil Young...

I hate listening to radio.

My stereo connects to the MP3 player on my phone via bluetooth, which is just legend! I just sit into the car and any files I have on the phone are instantly available

Will listen to most things though, like the radio and listen to it to/from work and when the journey's only short, but for certain journeys need some chilled out stuff, like Sigur Ros, Sarah Brightman, Alphastates, or more energetic stuff for nice weather driving, like Kasabian, Interpol or Muse. Could even throw on a Faithless, Paul Oakenfold or groove Armada album if I was in the mood... Yeah, all over the place - the flatmate's always slagging me about the randomness of my CD collection

Since the Jap Bus can only pick up stationa in the 75.0 - 90.0 band, I have the choice of either Radio 1 (Derek Mooney should be taken outside and shot, IMHO) or whatever is on my MiniDisc player (this week it has been Rory Gallaher, Metallica, and Queens of the Stone Age)

A couple of weks ago I discovered I had a CD player in the boot. Nice Surprise! No cartridge though, I'm debating whether or not to track one down.

Sony/Nokia phone, an fm transmittor and a 1/2gig mem card.

I only came across the idea a little while ago, but is so handy to just sit in, plug in the phone and listen to what ever you want, and you dont ever need a cd player in your stereo again or need to be arsing around with ipods or mp3 players! I think were finally seeing the end of the cd!

On topic wise.... I really like beatles stuff, guns n roses, bon jovi, killers, gemma hayes kind of music, generally upbeat fun music too.

Yeah, it's handy isn't it? Have a 2 gig card in my Nokia that I pop in the PC for transferring MP3s, and that uses bluetooth to connect to the car whenever I'm in it which is legend, don't have to do a thing

, but failing that I also have a line in socket under the glove box, just in case someone has any kind of MP3 player, MiniDisc, whatever that they wanna listen to... And of course, the CD player will accept MP3s burned onto a CD. Tis the poodle's parts

The iPod cable is fantastic. The two Neil Young songs you must have for any trip are Southern Man and Heart of Gold.

The radio is terrible, the aerial on a Micra is rubbish, can't pick up most Dublin Stations once past Harold's Cross
