I saw there was an option to get an ash tray for the car. I'm just curious if anyone has it, and if they could take a photo. I'm just curious what it looks like.

It looks like a cup with a spring loaded lid.

Where does it sit? By the parking break? Is it glued on or something?

It is designed to sit in one of the cup holders. I think it was added as an option in 2012 as it wasn't available when I placed my order in early 11.

Wow, thats a heck of a stretch. You really got to want to smoke. Thanks JL

Well, the Aston inexplicably came with the "Smoker's Kit" for a cool $450 you get 2 cigarette lighters in the "auxiliary power ports" and the trinket holder/ashtray that goes in the cup holder.

I think it's a paper clip holder myself...

Well made, billet. But who smokes now anyway? Teenaged girls and Russians. All my guys that smoke are switching to the e-cigarettes and they smoke them everywhere.

In any event, I imagine the Mac smoker's kit would be similar. Just much more difficult to get to with a long ash I imagine.

Thats cool Walt. Yea, it's a reach to get to the foot well, I'd imagine you'd have ash all over the floor by the time you got the cigarette there.

That's what you call an ashtray.

Loving your nails.

I'm no expert in that department Mikey. We should ask Ric's wife...

I wondered who the 12 were ... now to find the other 11

The McLaren ash tray is no where near as impressive as the Aston version. In fact it's a bit crappy and I'd be very surprised if you could actually use it as an ash tray without either crashing the car or setting the carpet on fire. It is free and makes a good knick knack holder though ....

 

[Jerry]

Sorry about the quality of this one, the flash seems to have been a bit extreme ...

 

[jkheit]

Wow, not exactly highly engineered. Also, is the entire thing plastic? Seems a touch dangerous to make the base out of plastic if you actually use it for smoking.

Anyway, thanks so much for posting the shots Jerry!

 

[Jerry]

Yes, the entire thing is made out of a hard plastic!

 

[roundincircles]

Jerry, calling the Mclaren ashtray crappy will cause Ron to chain smoke worrying about the improvement programme. I thought it was lightweight.......and of a lower specification than the Aston one

 

[Jerry]

Oh no, what have I done?
