Have you got the slot for one? I have a brand new one left as I replaced mine as it was broken and I had the opportunity to buy two for £1 each from an autojumble
That's very kind but no, no hole, no sign of one!Can you imagine smoking and driving the Cerbera "enthusiastically"??
It will be back to the contortions - not helped by having a tight single garage!

Upgraded mine today to a shiny voltmeter version (a bit of tech envy to be honest 
) and here's some photos for reference
The USB chargers with the volt output are wider than the hole so I am currently using a Dremel sander tool with a power drill to increase the hole - I will report back...

I see various methods for accessing the back of the cigarette lighter here - just to add my tuppence worth - you might find your car has a soft panel on the right hand side.
You need to take off the panel under the steering column so you can get your head down and see what you're doing, but apart from that it's easy.

I love the fact everyone's got various different modifications going on around the silver key, cigar lighter and ashtray / no ashtray
Success today with my drill / dremel sander bit strategy, and shiny new USB charger and Volt Meter installed in the enlarged hole - I work a mask and used a hand hoover as fibre glass dust is meant to be particularly bad to inhale
Now if I can just work out what the switch in the ashtray does, which I would swear was a fuel cut off switch until I tested it yesterday and it did exactly not that and the car started and ran fine in both positions...

Passenger Ejector seat. You must have a broken wire somewhere if you've been flicking it.Success today with my drill / dremel sander bit strategy, and shiny new USB charger and Volt Meter installed in the enlarged hole - I work a mask and used a hand hoover as fibre glass dust is meant to be particularly bad to inhale

Obviously with the fixed roof, It pops the door to door open and tips the passenger out sideways..

Tomorrow morning I'll start with mechanical stuff:
-Compression Test
-new oil
-new oil filter
-new air filter
-new fuel filter
-new differential oil
-new gearbox oil
-valves clearance
-new brakes pump
It will be a long week......
As usually, I need to ask some info:
-could you please tell me what values I have to expect about compression?
I had read some here but anytime are different values....
Is it maybe because of the way you perform the test?
-could you please let me know what clearances I have to put on exhaust and inlet valves?
As before, too many different info.....
Maybe because different cc needs different values?
I don't know....
N.B. My Cerbera is a 4.0 speed six
