Replaced the 2015 Ford Tourneo Connect this week - with another Ford Tourneo Connect(!). Just gone from 2015 to 2021 models . . . However, bitterly disappointed that the physical CD player has gone

My car was my refuge for playing music and I love having a selection of CDs in the car - now I am being denied this, or am I?

Are there any practical solutions (I am a 62 year old who is not up with technology) to overcome this and still let me play CDs?

Any practical suggestion appreciated - I miss playing Ayreon(!)

Thanks in anticipation

Having watched Pointless this evening and had several pointless answers on a question about Iron Maiden I thought I’d celebrate by doing the dishes to one of their albums. Here’s Somewhere In Time.

Assuming the new van doesn't have an aux-in socket? Consider a usb-powered portable cd player with an FM transmitter so the van's sound system can pick it up. Should do the job easily enough for forty quid or so. Here ya go. (Amazon UK product link)
