Good afternoon,Really hoping someone can help me.


Ive got an 11 plate Antara SE 2.2 4x4 diesel. Love it and had for 6 months now. The problem is that is came with a phone charger in the centre console where the cup holder should be. Got vauxhall to order me a new one (which took 3 months from Korea!). Finally arrived but now am told it won't fit! They reckon the charger is standard fit and to put a cup holder in will require the entire centre console being changed!


All I want is a cup holder, I don't want or need a phone charger.
Does anyone have the same issue? I appreciate it sounds pedantic but I would not have actually bought the car I had been told this at the time of purchase (which was from the same dealer).


I was told, "no problem….that will just pop out and can be replaced by a cup holder".


Many thanks
Dave

Hi Craigy,
Glad to know I'm not alone and have resorted to the same solution of having to put drinks in the back! I'm kind of resigned to not sorting it out now. I'm sure it would not be cheap and whilst I do enjoy the Antara there is no way I would invest having this does as I'm guessing it would not be cheap. Probably not a great return on investment!

It is interesting owning a Antara as it's my first 4wd. Are quite a few things that are really odd about it as I had an insignia prior to this and there are a few things the older insignia had that the Antara does not.
E.g. No temp gauge, crap economical 6th gear, daylight full beam lights, no dab radio. Saying that, the positive do outweigh the negatives at the moment. Am glad I bought it and am still enjoying it...... It just could and perhaps should be a bit better.

Thanks again for the post!Edited by: DJCA
