You can mine if you like  ;D

Mine hasnt popped off....but it doesnt do anything.....you can open the little storage area on top off the cup holder....and tilt the whole thing back to expose the cup holder....without doing anything to the handle......think mines broke too  :(

I'm hoping yours lasts a few years yet, mines a 2000 model, and yours a 2003 !

Love the car, but some crappy bits of plastic on it !!!

At least you have a cup holder!  Only thing that lets the car down in my opinion is poor storage and no cup holders on pre facelift.

Just pop down to Homebase and buy a cheap 50mm holesaw, you can have a cup holder anywhere you wish then  ;D

For such a big luxury car, storage is indeed poor, and cup holders would have been nice. I take mine to France for holidays and have to use those plastic holders that clip into the window frames. Functional yes. Cool no.

You could always pop on one of those " 60's" drive in movie trays to the out side of the window, NOW THAT WOULD BE COOL ( NOT ) !!! :-/

Jim managed to get a set of fold away cupholders from a Cadillac Catera (same as the Omega) on eBay US for his pre-facelift. Look rather nifty, and didn't cost him much either.  ::)
