looking for New head unit possibly with Android Auto

[ALEX 105 1 Cars]

Not really a fan of the original cassette tape player. I'd sooner have more convenience mp3, Bluetooth etc..

My Alpine head unit is playing up (about 20 years old!) so I'm considering an upgrade possibly something with android Auto. 

The position of the head unit in the phase1.5 - 2 dash isn't ideal for a screen to use when following a map. I might be best just with a decent phone holder.?

What are 205 owners using these days now its 2026?

blaupunkt bremen or frankfurt are new retro styled units that wont look out of place in a 205 but do have Bluetooth and aux ports.

 

for Nav I always just rested the phone on the instrument cluster,  but a phone mount would be simplest

Another vote for Blaupunkt, I recently upgraded to the Valencia - not as retro looking as those above, but doesn't look out of place and a 1/3 of the price of those above.

Depending on how fussy you are with build and sound quality, I'd personally stick to an alpine head unit (without screen) and use your phone for navigation and stick it on a phone holder.

 

I looked at getting a screen several years back and came to the conclusion would never fit or sit right without lots of modification.
