How can I listen to my USB music stick in my old Jaguar X-Type?

I have a 2005 Jaguar X-Type. On my previous Jags I have had a USB connection for my music stick but I cannot find a USB connection in my current car. How can I listen to my USB music stick in my old Jaguar X-Type?

If the car hasn't got a USB socket then you will need to buy a new audio system (which will be very expensive) or fit a USB socket with an FM transmitter. The USB socket will plug into the 12v socket and allow you to listen to your music via the car's radio.
