If it's a reputable dealer then cancel your order and they should return your deposit. Then place an order on a new one.

Has anyone else been in this situation before ?Taking a break from contractingComment

If the facelift model has been released and is showing up in the garages then you will get the facelift model (no car manufacturer runs old and new facelift models down the line at the same time).
A more important question is whether the options you want are still available in the way you ordered them. Seat and VW both managed to screw up some case last year when front parking sensors moved from a self select item to part of a package only. Get you dealer to check whether what you ordered is still a valid combinationmerely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
