I mean a preordered car for which you can still amend the specs
I ordered mine in January and it was delivered in February
I am sure you can find one specify your options and still get it before April

Looking at what's included in the Pro packs I think it's mostly all stuff I've got specced already so still hopeful it might offer some discount, perhaps. Really annoying the 22" wheels I'm going for are an accessory and original wheels can't be traded back to recoup some without having to resort to eBaying unused wheels. Should have some proper answers by first half of next week I guess.
When you option 22" wheels or any other size, these are instead of original wheels not as well as, you dont get 2 sets. Opting for dynamic pack is the best cheapest way to upgrade wheels,

Edit: sorry mis-read, Just been pointed out I missed they are an accessory not an option.

I think what Torshen is saying is that the 22" are an accessory, not an option, and as such he'd end up with both sets.

Only available on Inscription with Nappa Soft Leather Perforated and Ventilated.

I had massage on the Merc's seats and thought it pretty much a waste of time (and money).

I do, but the document I have from my dealer says confidential, not to be shared, so I don't want to get them into trouble as they're being very nice and helpful. Think along the lines of winter plus a couple of other bits and you won't be far wrong for momentum. The other two classes have a couple of extra upgrades too but are more money as well.

And yep, 22" wheels are an accessory so i have to take the car with both sets annoyingly. It's only R-design that has 22" as a factory option but you can't have blond interiors on R-design and I don't much like the grille either.

Really hard to say, but it looks like you've got everything included in the pro pack for R-design there. The question is whether the pro pack gives enough of a discount to override the standard price bump that all models are getting, and I couldn't tell you that.

New prices look like they'll be taking effect next week anyway so you don't have long, and it might be that dealers aren't taking orders until next week now anyway, perhaps? Not sure.

i suspect there will be a slight facelift soon in particular rear lights to bring it in line with new v90 and new xc90 identity.
