[ What we claim is:] [1.]1. A container holder for a motor vehicle, the container holder comprising:a) a first member which defines a generally concave recess, said recess including at least one cam projection configured to present a plurality of different angular engagement surfaces for abutment with a desired container when located within the recess;b) a resilient member having a first end thereof permanently connected to a first side of the recess and a second end permanently connected to an opposite side of the recess, and the resilient member extending across the recess for retaining a desired container when located within the recess;said recess and said resilient member being configured such that when a desired container is received within the recess, said resilient member is adapted to be deformed to facilitate accommodation for a range of different dimensioned containers within the recess, whereby the recess, the at least one cam projection and said resilient member cooperate with one another to hold releasably a desired container therebetween.
