There is absolutely nothing about that box that I dislike! It has a JVC badge, it looks fabulous, I'd sell my kidney to buy one only they don't usually cost that much. 
There's one for sale without the walkman part, and it's a very sad situation. Seller obviously made the peace with the fact that he'll hardly ever find the lost walkman, so he sells the rest for ridiculuous 10euros.
On the other hand, potential buyer buys what and with what chances to find walkman alone, in identical color?
Made me google for it, and it is definitely the cutest compactest unit I've seen. Since it is JVC, I reckon that sound is more than decent.
Few more pics. All metal, red glow paint, (I guess brushed aluminum). and decorative chrome here and there. Simply fantastic. Purest 80s design.
BTW, just think what would happen if Sony had a go at it with their tape-sized walkman, this unit could hold 2 inch larger speakers, or full bass, midtone, tweeter 3-way ones.
I really don't get why they've all stopped designing interesting inovative units like this one, and melted into boring mainstream, with identical black plastic cruvy boxes, as transition to pure eggs that still keep on appearing, with new features but least appeal ever.

I would LOVE to have one of these, TOO!!! I spent most of my teen years riding city buses and listening to tapes on my walkman.

That is
Hands down the sweetest RED radio EVER!
Is the walkman part metal?
Those speakers look like they mean business
....and JVC to boot 
Would really like to see that top panel up close

the front of the walkman part is all brushed and anodized aluminum ,the inside of the cassette well has an aluminum backing plate with mirrored stripes the best looking i have seen other than the grid pattern backing plate on the m90 deck. there is nothing cheap or cheesy about these boxes ,almost like a scaled down pc 55.

Dear Santa Claus , I miss you write today December 26 , but I want to clarify certain things that have happened since I sent my letter , full of hope , in which I asked you to bring me a bicycle , an electric train , one nintendo 64 and a pair of skates .
I want to tell Santa Claus that killed myself studying all year , while I was not only the first class , but I took pure buzzed at school , I will not cheat . There was no one who was behaving better than me or their parents , or their siblings , or with their friends and not with your neighbors.
, helped the old people cross the street and there was never something I would not do for my fellow man , and yet WHAT SANTA CLAUS YOURS ! Is that ... leave under the tree top fark , fark a trumpet and a bloody pair of socks,WHAT shiat ! .
What the hell do you think paunchy ? or that I behave like a jerk all this year to come with a shiat of this caliber , and not content with that , the queer son of the neighbor who is idiotic , uneducated , spoiled , disobedient who yells at his mom , that fool of balls you brought everything you asked . So now I want to come an earthquake or something, to take us all to hell , because with a Santa Claus like you, so incompetent and false , rather than the earth swallow us .
But yes , be sure to come next year because I will bust your farking stoned and mangy deer : Starting Rudolph that shiat is gay name . I will scare you so you have to fark , walk like I walk motherfarker , because the bike was I asked to go to school , which is to take the ass from home.
Aaah! and I would not say goodbye without mentarte the mother who bore youwish that when you upload too high you spin the farking sled and hit a good host you for being so child bitch . But yes , I warn you that next year you'll know what a farking child , and a little bastard .
sorry google traslator,but I think you get the concept!
