It's the TDCi hatch with leather, bluetooth, sunroof. I was told that there were two colours left on the boat, a white one (I saw someone here snagged that) and a silver one. Mine is silver. If it doesn't get to me before 3/1, that would make it a two month wait (I signed the paper work on 3/11). I've currently got the blue one which has been doing the press rounds.
Screw your dealer hard. I have. I didn't have a car, so that's how I ended up with a Ford demo. They are also going to swing in a few extras for me, towbar, bonnet protector, iPod cable and second and third services.
I did see a black TDCI today, and it had the normal plates, and a tow bar. So they obviously can get them fitted.
One thing though, the hatch opens up a long way. I've been very worried about banging it on roofs of carparks, as I have to almost reach up with a straight arm to pull it down, and I'm six foot. That's not in the marketing material. Plus the bluetooth is a bit dodgy at times, you have to talk in a pommy accent to control the fan. The phone is a bit weird also, but when I get mine, I'll suss it out properly.
