Must say the passenger flip-out one is the only one of the front cup holders that actually works... I have been known to use it even when I'm driving by myself Whistle It's the only one that will reliably hold a can without spilling it everywhere.

Bottles of coke, bottles of water, everything is too small for the center cup holders... And the bottle holders on the doors have to be the worst design EVER - 1) I always, always, always kick/scuff it with my foot when getting out, and 2) when I put a large bottle of water in there, the cap of the bottle (ie. the rough/sharp bit) rubs exactly against the beautiful chrome surround for the door speaker Big Cry

Agreed!
Some inserts to reduce the diameter of the center cupholders would be welcome..

I agreed I also have the reduce cup holder.

But still it does not fit...

Either to small either too big!

The Vittel "sport" water fits the front centre cupholders...so well that the insert stays on the bottle when you try and have a swig from it....
 really ought to change this.........

I like the way the door holders will hold a bottle of champagne. Cool
I have some rubber sheet in mine for when it is anordinary bottle of wine. Thumbs Up

I seem to remember the centre ones were designed for the US market to take a large 'macdont' thickshake. Rolling Eyes
