By 1976 build 528, had an 'optional' stereo radio/cassette player, with a retracting electric aerial, which operated as you switched the radio on and off.

..at the time!

I remember when they got rid of power antennas and reception started to suck with the in glass antennas. Things are better now with HD radio, I can get good FM reception with the shark fin antenna even in underground parking structures.

Take me to your man!

Especially if he's a man that can please himself

I guess pleasing yourself meant something different back in those days.
