After ordering in June, it is finally here, 31st December pick up ready for the new year. Hopefully there will be nothing missing and all the features at the time of ordering are attached to the car.

Taken delivery of the car in the last day if the 2021. So far it is exceptionally good to drive. The downside I did not get what I thought is was getting when ordering the car, which I thought included the dash cam and blind spot monitoring, both are missing. I have the shine model and the sales info shows that these are extra along with the satnav, but I do have the satnav, which on the base shine is not included. I am still looking into this to see if I am wrong and its not included or they specs have been changed since I ordered the car.

Shine PLUS has full specs, did you do a full check prior to signing and driving away?.

No, not at the time, I know I did not order the shine plus, found the paper work today, definitely the shine. Looks like it could be my fault, at the time there were the old model names, such as the flair etc. It looks like things may have changed when the model names did. Should have paid more notice at the time, dash-cam is another £200 on the shine.

The onset of Covid has lead to many standard items now being paid for extras.
Enjoy the car.

Yes I have already been looking at them and considering the Citroen dash-cam is £200 extra, there are a lot better ones on offer for less.
