Can cupholders hold Sigg bottles?

I've gotten a bit tired of the ol plastic bottles and am considering a Sigg bottle. They're awesome and I bet one would last literally forever. Does anyone have one? Will it fit any of the cupholders in the Clubman?

They sure do. If you have a friendly dealer, they will give you one that's cool looking (Checkered motif with a racing helmet lid). And it is a genuine Sigg labeled bottle. I also checked a 30 year old one...fits perfectly (However, it was still full of Coleman fuel...won't become a drinking utensil).

Seems the auto-correction software on this board doesn't like the name of the store but I swear that's the real name!

The rubber tabs around the cup holder keep a long neck bottle still, too.

What?! Mine doesn't fit! It only fits in that bigger one behind where the armrest would be-except mine is currently blocked by my Mini Bulldog.....

I'm with In the Pink. I have the MINI Sigg bottle (the checkered one) and mine does NOT fit in the front cup holders, but it does in the larger ones in back. I was a little surprised that a MINI labeled bottle did not fit in the regular cup holders...

You have to push it in...tight fit but it will go (That sounds more suggestive than ****'s)

I came across an unexpected dilemma: they come in two widths: one is very narrow, about as wide as a Coke can. The other is wider. Will the wide one fit the back cup holder or is it about one or two mm too wide?

My mistake...SIGGs come in three sizes (Or more). The 1.0 liter will not fit in any of the compartments, the .06 liter will fit all of the compartments. My previous post was correct as I tried both my new and very old bottles, which were .06 liter. Sorry for the confusion, but if you bought one that didn't fit keep it anyway...they are cool.
