Good Points: Value for money Quality Ease of use
Bad Points: CD player is sometimes fussy
General comments: I bought the Blaupunkt Woodstock 53 DAB Radio simply for DAB and because it was so cheap...£250 at Halfords a few years ago, with free instillation. Of course because it was a Blaupunkt I knew it was good quality so I could rest easy knowing this wasn't false economy and that it would deliver on all fronts.
What can I say? Not disappointed in any way as far as I can think. Superb sound quality from the DAB radio and CD player, even on my 13 year old BMW 520's original speakers. The DAB really is good - very good. Wonderful sound quality although it's sometimes baffling when looking for a particular station, but you get used to it. When in built up areas, you will still experience interference in the form of a farting sound....just saying!
The CD player is also top notch, delivering a rich and lively sound but be careful, it reacts a little petulantly to scratches and general flaws in your CD's, unlike my old Sony which was welcoming to all my offerings, but maybe that's because of the refinement in general.

As with any car radio the hardest bit is the installation. In this case it was the aerial. The DAB radio needs a special aerial. The Woodstock has aerial inputs for both the FM and the DAB (so that you can always fall back on the analogue FM ...
