About the RetroSound EUR-M1B
From our tech experts at CEN
The RetroSound Europa Motor 1B (EUR-M1B) is a classic car stereo designed to replicate the factory radio look in 1960s and 70s vehicles. It features an AM/FM RDS tuner with 30 presets, Bluetooth 5.0 for streaming and hands-free calling, and 4 x 18W RMS of built-in amplification. A microphone and rear-mounted auxiliary input are included in the box.
Who it suits
This suits classic car owners who want Bluetooth connectivity and modern audio without altering the period look of their dashboard. There is no DAB tuner on this model; if DAB is important to you, the Europa Motor 4 adds that alongside the same 1960s-70s styling.
Our tech experts advise
The Motor 1B uses a modular design and requires assembly before fitting — all brackets, harnesses and fixings are included. It is compatible with 12V negative ground vehicles only, so confirm your car's electrical setup before ordering. Fitting cost is priced per vehicle; our Nottingham installation team can advise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this stereo fit my car?
A: Most vehicles need a fascia panel, wiring harness and sometimes a steering wheel control interface to fit a new stereo. Contact CEN with your make, model and year and we will confirm the exact installation kit needed, or browse our Connects 2 installation kits.
Q: Will I keep my steering wheel controls?
A: Yes, in almost all cases. A steering wheel control interface retains your existing buttons with the new stereo. Parts are sold separately.
Q: Does this stereo support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto?
A: Check the Specification tab, which lists smartphone connectivity for each model including whether CarPlay and Android Auto are wired or wireless on that unit.
Q: What is the difference between single DIN and double DIN?
A: DIN refers to the chassis size. Single DIN units are the traditional slim format, while double DIN units are twice the height and typically carry a touchscreen. Your vehicle's dash aperture and fascia kit determine which fits.
Q: Can CEN supply and fit the stereo?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional supply and installation from our Nottingham premises, including fascia, wiring and steering control integration. Contact us for a fitted price.
Q: How powerful is the RetroSound Europa Motor 1B?
A: The built-in Mosfet amplifier delivers 18W RMS x 4 channels, with 40W peak per channel and 275W peak power in total.
Q: Can I stream music and make calls with the RetroSound Europa?
A: Yes. The Motor 1B has built-in Bluetooth 5.0 for audio streaming and hands-free calling, and a Bluetooth microphone is included. There is also a rear-mounted auxiliary input for portable devices.
Q: Will the RetroSound Europa fit a positive earth car?
A: No. RetroSound radios are only compatible with 12V negative grounding vehicles, with a power requirement of 11.5 to 14.4V.
