When you buy a 500bhp motor, clearly the most important issue is where to put your drinks biggrin

- I see there appear to be 2 cup holders underneath the Command unit, but only my passenger side one is working, yet owners manual indicates there should be two - is mine broken, or is there only one?

cheers (from the passenger side only!)

If I had a 500 bhp MB, the only cups I would expect to hold would be around 34B.....

One simply does NOT drink in a moving MB. But holding cups? Ooooh, yes!!

34B??? What's wrong with you, man!

I won't consider less than a 34FF.

And it would appear that the cup holder situation is normal: mine has passenger side only too. The drivers side is just a blank. Not that I'm bothered - anyone trying to eat or drink in any car of mine is going to have another think coming furious

Quality, not quantitty. And the sweeter the meat the closer to the bone!

When MB first heard that Amuuuuuurikans actually slurped huge volumes of ice-and-liquid in cars, they haughtily replied that it wasn't something one did in a Benz!

Quite so.

There is only one, if there was one on the drivers side it would interfere
with the steering wheel and indicator stalk.

Any more than a 34B might upset the handling... biggrin

Thanks Mark, that's what I thought it was likely to be
