Astra - MP3 CD Player or not?

[luckyman28]

Hello Vauxhall experts,

I'm currently looking to buy a Vauxhall Astra registeration somwhere between 2006 & 2008.

I will either be buying a 1.6 or 1.8 (SRI) but an absolute essential for me is a CD player that plays MP3. Is there any spec of Astra that I can look for that will always have this. If its an Astra "Sport" will it definitely have this? Or does the SXI definitely have this? I have seen some that say they have an auxillary point to plug an MP3 player into but this really isn't what I want. Please someone help me!!!! How can I choose a model that will have an MP3 CD player.

Thanks in advance for any advice given.

I have a 2008 Vectra SRi, and it has a CD-30 unit in it. This will not play MP3 CD's. There is a version that will, marked, rather logically CD-30 MP3. I think the same units were installed in the Astra, so if you are looking then thats one to check out.
