Buying a used 2021/22/23 plate - What spec will u get.
Discussion
I have been thinking about this and then this article pops up.

The new vehicles that have been produced the past 12mths and maybe for the next 12mths are going to be missing certain spec that you would expect on a particular model. It's no longer a given that what the brochure said of the spec will actually be fitted and dealers themselves may not have the accurate information as when advertising just tend to use the standard spec sheet for the model / year.
You could have digital dash, wireless chargers or certain spec info systems missing or downgraded. When things do eventually settle with the market how is it going to affect prices, me personally I will unless 100% sure likely stay away from anything produced between maybe Jan 21 and Jan 23 or until said manufacturer can say for certain that specs were not altered.
We just came back from holiday and the new hire cars had no info systems fitted. These were being fitted at a later date due to shortages.
