Not necessarily the cheapest unit but has BT streaming, handsfree calling from phone and many other useful features and wouldn't look too out of place down in the centre console. Also a decent power output and ISO connectors.
Recommissioning/improvements are definitely a good idea and i would suggest a full service too. If i remember which thread it was on, someone posted the link to an online manual for it that covers the D-Jetronic injection. There are also 4 Haynes manuals on fleabay for it as well :

From a time when Haynes produced proper workshop manuals and not Mickey Mouse ones with silly-spanner ratings!  |
You may be right about the retro radio being missing Dave; that is a very nice unit you have suggested to fill the gap, but if it was my car (and it is not) I’d try this similarish one for £14:

If my friend wants a £270 radio fitted that is okay, if she wants the £14 one I’m happy to fit that as well.
The link to a manual would be handy; I’ve sent the link for a new Haynes manual on to my friend.
