    The old man had that adapted as a design feature.

    I know the OP is kind of serious about this, well, tough, your car loses value as soon as it's out of the dealership - even if there was no new model.

    Getting a used Bugatti Veyron for a good price may be tough, but perhaps you should consider something more reasonable like a Honda Veyron....

    The only time he's been in a Bentley he ended up on an attempt to pervert the course of justice charge.

    No, he ordered a Bently, hence him getting a VW.

    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 combination

    Has anyone else been in this situation before ?

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