The Lesser Evil

So, I'm waiting for over 5 months for the delivery of my Cupra Born. Once they assumed they would deliver the car in 3 months, thay are now trying to sell me a slightly different car.

So I chose the Typhoon rims, with copper finishing. They are proposing the Typhoon rims but aluminium, and it has the Tech M Pack, that i have not chosen before.

What would you do in my shoes, wait for another 4 weeks or accept this one? Really on a limb here

When I order something my mind is set and I stick with my choice. Every time I look at the wheels I'd wish I had stayed with the copper. 4 weeks aint so long providing that's a firm time line.

There seems to be a lot of upgrades on Tech packs right now, picked my car up last week and it’s got the L pack, when I only ordered the M pack.

Dealer says this has been the case on 3 cars lately, as long as they’re not asking for more money happy days.

I have the typhoon gold wheels, silver just didn’t look right.

I too went for the copper wheels and no options.
I read somewhere on this forum, you can get stickers to cover the aluminium with copper coloured stickers.

So, in an unexpected turn around, I was "gifted" with the copper rims AND the Tech M pack, AND cheaper than it has been agreed on, AND it will be delivered over the next week!!!

When something is too good to be truth, it's always too good to be truth... Is there something I should be looking for, something that might not be exactly as I expect?

Looks like you got a late cancellation.
Body colour you wanted?

Yep, everything I asked for, and the Tech M pack for free, and a final price discount. Seems like too good to be true

They probably had a sales target to meet, with a decent bonus from Cupra up for grabs, that your original car wouldn't have arrived on time for.
