Hi,
I'm new here and have my 2008 for few days now. I can't understand why there is no cup- holder. it's a basic part in every car, don't you think so?
Is the 208 cup-holder fits for the 2008 or has anyone here found a cup-holder for the 2008 that fits?
Thanks

I think there's one standard in the Allure. It's a plastic insert in the cubbyhole I front of the gear lever. We took ours out as we found it got in the way for storage of larger items. So I suggest you check out an Allure at the dealership and you should be able to order one.

Hi,In Israel we have 2008 Active (my car - 1.6L Automat) and Premium. I didn't seethis plastic cup-holder in any model here, but the sales person said that the 208 cup-holder should fit. Very Strange... Anyway I have just recieved from Peugeot Israel parts that there is such part:

Is this what you have?

Thanks for your replay

Yair.

That's what in my allure

Peugeot don't seem big on cup holders in my experience. None of the small Peugeots I've had have ever had cup holders in useable positions. This one in the 2008 isn't really any better.

That is always the down side in pugs, storage space why they stopped the under seat storage in the 206 still a sore pointEdited by: Mik207

It's not a great cup holder,you can only put a coke can in it or a small coffee.it won.t take anything bigger otherwise it's lean at a angle & rattle if you like small drinks it is fine,anything bigger u be wasting your money if u buy it

 

[Yair O]

We usually
drink coffee or tea
from disposable cups. I'll take your advice and check the size before I'll pay.Hope they will fit.. Thanks!

You can see the gap between the cup holders so what was said about two coke cans is right.

Any cup that fans outto a widertop will not fit properly and could easily topple.

I must say I am a little disappointed from Peugeot because of the Lack of the cup-holder and the armrest.
For us it's quite important.


I was sure that it can be easily solved, now I see that the only solution for the cup-holder is the one Peugeot produce and sell for an expensive price and from what I hear from you guys it's not realy a good one, and as for the armrest, Peugeot have none.


I bought the cup-holder today and will get it tomorrow, I hope we can get along with it..


Thanks

[Mik207]

Ya that's a major bad point with the pug

 

[skipper mike]

My dealer showed me the extras price list before I put my order and there was an arm rest (115 euros in Greece). I am not sure how good it is compared to the ones many here bought from Italy...

As for the cup holder, I have ordered an Allure so it is in its standard equipment and I also drink from disposable cups, so please let us know how practical it is.

P.S. Dont let small details like this let you down. I think we have made a fine choice...

Hi skipper mike, today I recieved the cup-holder and as allan40alt wrote here above it's quite small for 2 large cups as you can see in the pictures.
Another problem is that in same place there is also the 12V socket and the USB port/auxiliary socket all
in the same place so it's a bit crowded there...

btw I only said I'm a little disappointed from Peugeot, don't worry we still love this car it's only those little things that bugs us...

Hope that helps..
Yair

 

[skipper mike]

Looks OK. I never had a car with cup holders able to fit 2 cups. They always fit one cup or 2 bottles of water or 2 soda cans. I hope that its practical to reach the cup and not stretch too much.

 

[Yair O]

We also own Ford Focus and no problems there, the cup-holder is big and located in a perfect place. We owned till recent, Renault Megane, also no cup-holder problem.. as for reaching the cup-holder in the 2008 it depend how tall you are and if the seat is pushed all the way back...

Hi I have the allure and definitely wanted a cup holder as my old 206 didn't have one! However the cup holder only holds a small cup and I drink out of a big one so it doesn't fit!! I put my cup in the central compartment and slide the closer to hold it still - it works great!! Drink cans and small bottles are probably OK in the cup holder

 

[george2104]

The cup holders in front are for small-medium coffee cans, coke, sprite, and so on... for bottles you use the armrest or the door place...

What I got for mine because stock holders are not meant for freddo espresso or capuccino. When not used I put it under the front passenger seat.
