    Some time ago I ordered a Seat Altea XL, and checked it did come with a full size spare wheel/tyre. I was shown a full size spare in the boot of the very model we were ordering, this was a manual ours would be the auto. The brochure was then shown to me, it listed a full size spare wheel. No problem then!

    About 6 weeks later we picked up our new car and yes it had no spare wheel, just a can of gunk.

    I pointed this out to the very salesman that had done the motability paperwork. He then with a smug smile on his face pointed to the back of the brochure, in small print at the bottom it said something like.

    SEAT is committed to a policy of continuous product development and reserves the right to make changes to specifications, colours and prices without notice.
    The information in this brochure can therefore be given as guidance only. While SEAT makes every effort to ensure that specifications are accurate at the time of publication (March ‘13), you should always check with your authorised SEAT dealership for the latest information.

    Seems the car you order my not be the car that arrives.
