(G) Strange storage compartment

There is an odd little storage compartment just under the speedo/dials to the left of the steering wheel, what is it actually for as nothing seems to fit in it? I thought it may have a use on higher spec models as mine is only an active.

There on my one too, pretty useless as far as I can see, if it had a little mat you could stick some coins in but they fall out without.

is it a jonny box holder?

Actually my mobile phone fits in there, i think it's quite handy. Also, i believe u can fit a credit card in there providing you put it in in the correct position and it's also good for those cardbord cards you get at tolls and parkings; it ain't much but hey, better than nothing!!!
By the way, isn't that where the button goes for Stilo's with no key???

You might just have hit the nail on the head there

Yea, that would make sense.

I prefer the johnny box holder solution

Keyless Stilos and dodgy electrics - sounds interesting
