You've got to remember Buster, this forum represents a small percentage of actual owners, which probably means that nationwide (worldwide?) a higher percentage of customers are not getting exactly what they ordered and paid for, *IF* these people don't complain to the manufacturer then eventually whatever was missing in the spec then becomes the norm and subsequent customers end up paying a higher price for a lesser product!
**Always** kick up a fuss if you don't get what you've paid for!
Mk VI Black Pearl GTD.... No Frills, replaced a Black Pearl PD150 Bora, which in turn replaced a Dragon Green VR6 which followed a Dusty Mauve MK III 8v Gti.

f**k that ide complain my arse off if things wern't right. IE if the broucher has 35 in the headrest ide want it. I know you should get a keyring so i want that also, Not because some valeter decided he liked the look of it and pinched it.

If it's not to the spec I ordered then yes, I would kick up a fuss.

You should have seen the battle I had to get floor mats in mine (bought second hand) - let's just say I didn't leave the showroom until I got them - and we parted on good terms and still speak to the salesman who sold me the car - great guy.

Oh and the same for the connector cables in the armrest; the bottle opener etc.

If somebody has spent a lot of money on a car or any other item then absolutely raise the issue and demand what you have paid for.

I am pedantic. I am a perfectionist. I am a little OCD. Nothing wrong with that IMO

+1.

My car was sitting in the showroom before I bought it so someone had knicked both. I didn't have to kick up a fuss to get them but I would have if needed.
