Few new cars have a spare wheel as standard now. It is usually a reasonable price when a factory order, but expensive if you try to get is fitted by a dealer. I got a space saver for my daughter's Captur from ebay for quite a good price, that may be the way to go.
Also you are not missing much with the camera. It is slow to download, the capacity is small and only gives ~90 minutes before it overwrites the earlist clips, there is no capacity to store a clip in the event of an incident and the speed info is always in kph. You are probably better off with a stand alone dashcam.
It's not true that there is no capacity to store a clip in the event of an incident - in fact that happens automatically. If you plug a computer into the camera, the download takes about 9 minutes for the whole contents.
It is true that the camera capacity is limited, but I'm sure that it stores much more than 90 minutes. The clips are 2 minutes long each as standard, and mine saves between 64 and 67 clips before overwriting. That's around 2hours in total. Also, permanent storage is activated if you long-press the button on the camera to take video.
It is a shame, however, that Citroen didn't allow Micr-SD Cards to be used though, that would have been much better, as they can easily be swapped out and larger capacities used. But it should be remebered though, that you do not need huge amounts of storage for safety incidents to be recorded, and that is after all what the camera is intended for.
