Hi Ian
when I ordered Kona from dealership in Guildford – I was able to pre order the Kona before the normal 3 month Motability lead in.
I think they were happy to do this for two reasons – they appreciated the additional time lag because of chip shortage and so it was both sensible and helpful to me – also they knew they would have no problem selling it if I changed my mind – my swop date was meant to be 8th March so the official Motability bit happened in December.
when I went through my options with them on their computer I chose the ultimate and was able to see the interior colour chose ie light grey or black leather and also the exterior colour choices which included “misty jungle”.
I was able to take copy of paper work away with me and the next day they sent me the online confirmation – all an easy and efficient system.
what I don’t know is if these options were only available with the ultimate spec.
I hope this has answered your question and maybe some that you didn’t ask!
