Enquiring minds want to know … does it fit in those daft square cup holders?

Doesn't everyone have square cups?
It fits those square holes it was just one of those mad accessories you could have purchased when buying new who ever specked my car when buying must have ticked nearly every option to me it’s a nice silly item and I like it
I have found no issue with putting round cups in the ‘squircle’ holes… but do find that, on the 4x4 where the console sits higher (nearer the gear-lever) that the top of most cups hits the gear-lever casing and so won’t sit level.
But also, I never have cups there while driving

I had this personality kit in my Panda, I might still have it somewhere although I'm not 100% sure. It's a very rare item & I came across mine just by luck when I was looking for something else & I paid something silly like £15-£20 I think as they are normally near £100, the chrome trim was the one thing I couldn't find in 6 years ownership
The accessory ‘cup’ was originally sold as an ashtray, with a flip down lid, but came with pen holders etc as an extra bit to make it more ‘versatile’. It was part of a ‘smokers’ kit that also saw a cigarette lighter in place of the 12v socket. Later, as smoking became less common, it was only sold as a pen holding pot (I think this ePER image is from the older model panda but shows the idea)

Argos & Tesco sell a brand of travel cup called "Smash" they have the exact sqircle base to fit the cup holder.
Hi I take it you never seen the exhaust trim in reality like on a car I see on eBay at the minute there’s a genuine exhaust trim for a 169
I never saw the genuine exhaust trim in reality in the entire 6 years I owned my Panda, it was the one thing I wanted but could never find one, even in Europe they're scarce. I no longer own the Panda though as I got rid of it last year after having many issues with the airbag & body control modules.
