Now that's taking all the fun out of life, will just have to stick to beer this weekend. Taken me 2 hours to find the 12V adaptor for the cool box for Abingdon, well worth the effort!

I noticed that the cupholder inserts on the 2006 model loaner I had last appear differently profiled to the 2005 model. Less of a step halfway down if I remember rightly.
(I know .... I need a new anorak )
I just happen to use mine to "friction fit" my ipaq suction mount - its a perfect fit.Long succession of Disco's since 2001...

The quest continues!!! Just bought the mug below. Slots into the "apple holders" in the centre area like it was designed for it (2006MY just in case different from 2005MY). It is a Mountain Life "stainless steel travel mug" and costs the princely sum of £3.50!!!! (£7 regular price). So happy I bought another 2 so that they could occasionally get cleaned. Bought them from a Karrimor oulet place near Bridgend. Long way to drive but definately worth it!!!

Now these are a good fit, holds the same as two cups of tea and good for around an hour.
No rattling or swaying and they have a little spongy bottom to stop slippage.
Only bad side is handles start to weaken and ultimately come off, but the ones that did this I had used for around a year and took them from freezing car to red hot washing up bowl....Crack!

How are they in the dishwasher? The ones I bought filled with water & lost the rubber base. Still they fit fantastically well, s'pose I'll get round to washing them by hand!

They don't do the dishwasher either unfortunately, however, in my house if you leave something next to the sink the washing up fairy comes along and does them for you...who needs the dishwasher

In my house I do the dishwasher & consider I get off lightly, the washing machine thingy (along with its evil sister the tumble dryer) are far too much like hard work. Both me & Mrs DSL being students, needless to say the iron does not come into the picture!

Useful to heat up the water for a coffee if the kettle has bitten the dust!

Santa Claus brought LRE insulated mugs. One dishwash later and I've had to drill holes in the bases there was so much water in them.
SC also brought the LR wellington boot bag. Excellent piece of kit. (think Nick at Yeovil was involved).
