Re: What do you hate about your car?
Two cars ago I bought a cheap plastic cup holder with a 'lip' that slipped between the window and the door panel. Kinda reminded me of drive-in restaurant trays from waaaaaaaaay before your time, Adrian!
One car ago, a BMW, there was no cup holder, just as Craig mentioned. The cheap plastic cup holder from the previous car didn't work. The 'lip' was too thick, iirc. A friend of my mechanics rigged together a substitute and attached it between the front seats. It always looked cheesy but it served it's purpose for the 8 years I had that car.
Current cars cup holder is amazing. It has an inner ring and an outer ring. When a large cup is placed in it, the inner ring is pushed away. A small cup is obviously held within the smaller, inner ring. I don't buy Big Gulp size drinks so I don't know the largest size it will hold. When I'm pau using the holder, I press a button and the holder folds up and disappears down into a puka and the puka has a 'panel' that covers it and matches the wood of the center console. Very cool. Truly is the reason I bought that car!
