picked this up today,a couple of you may have seen it,
i threw a price at him and he ended early
it came with a folder of reciepts for servicing etc(like what you get with a used car) and even letters to aiwa uk,interesting stuff.

hey bison lad,thats a cool radio,i have one myself,i asked that guy a few questions about that aiwa but he was a bit sketchy in his answers,like i asked him if the deck worked,he said it did but you have to fiddle with it to get it to work,just hope it does'nt need belts lad,they are a nightmare..
bison - 2012-02-21 17:39
the decks dead bm,..it tries so i think its just belts,not that i will be attempting them.lol
it has reciepts for belt changes so i half expected it to work.
everything else is ok just needs a switch cover fitting and i can get that off my 600.
radio sounds ok on both channels.
gonna clean it up tommorow,it will look mint cleaned up theres not a scratch on it

same as mine lad,mines a minter,my deck works,it used to sound mint but just recently when i was playing it,the sound started making this crustly crackly noise from the left channel,sometimes it will play for 5 minutes and do it,and sometimes it can play for half an hour or and hour then it will do it,but i played it for ages the other night and it never did it at all,Strange ....not that bothered about it,got loads of other radios that i can play with..theres an aiwa 990 on ebay now with a broken deck for £150 buy it now..
