Have just received a phone call from my dealership with less then 2 months left before i hopefully pick up my Aircross flair plus, that Citroen have now decided that they will now not have a sun roof fitted (approx £950) and also the fitted web cam will not be part of the package (£???). Incidendly the cost of the car I have ordered will not reflect the cost for these reductions in the origonal specks, quite the opposite they have informed me there is a price hike this month. This is most definately a game changer for me, my dealer has informed me that he has had to contact 15 potential purchasers in our area, so I would imagine there are quite a few discruntled potential purchasers out there? Comments would be appreciated. Terry Lee

So what do you now get on a Flair + that isn't on a Flair?

Yes that's not really on is it..I can understand in these times that supply of some items must be difficult but to change the price after a contract signed isn't on. The dash cam wasn't fitted on my C3 Flair Aircross auto which I was surprised at.

Are dashcams fitted to any C Aicrosses. I thought they were only on C3s.

In early May 2020 I did have a look on the Citroen.fr website and was surprised at how many items were no longer included in the top spec model: sunroof, phone charge plate, SPARE WHEEL (you might want to check if that has gone in UK also).
The UK brochure dated April 2020 still has lots of these included ( but the Puncture repair kit and compressor is definitely in the list with no spare wheel) but the UK configurator does not allow the Roof, the black gloss roof and the DashCam to be selected although they are priced. I presume another brochure must be in the offing.
The 1.6l petrol engine has also gone in UK
Indeed, I cannot replace my 15 month old car with like for like should anything happen!
Plus ca change.
C5 Aircross Flair Plus 180 Petrol EAT8, Platinum Grey with Red Accents and Black Roof. Now traded for DS7 E Tense.
