well it got delivered yesterday, but I rejected it :-D

They need to now buy me the correct model / spec.

If im paying through the nose in tax, they can make sure I get what im paying for.


Let me guess, you ordered top of the range or nearly, and they sent an 1.8 LX or similar?

Cruise control on manual cars is pretty common

there was no cruise control - last few cars Ive had have been autos with CC - wasnt really aware that manuals can have cruise control - thought that could be a bit awkward with gears, etc.

set it to 70, then put your feet up & steer.

Not looked into exactly how they do it but had a couple of manuals with cruise control.

Just thought I should mention it in case youd rejected the right car :)

heh, that will be an incorrect order as well, but in your favour.   If you are getting reamed for tax then might as well have it.
