ON ORDER SINCE FEB 18TH CRYSTAL WHITE AND 20" ALLOYS
no exact date but dealer thinks it will be end of April
was told 3 days after ordering that there was no 20" wheels then the day after they confirmed I was getting the 20"
ordered 18th Feb but still waiting
I ordered a xc40 crystal white petrol 1st edition on launch day (22/02/18) with 20β wheels. It has now landed and due to be picked up this week. Sadly it only has 19β wheels. The dealer did mention they Volvo factory have issues with availability on the 20β wheels when I placed the order.
Q1) those that ordered on launch or subsequent for a 1st edition how many managed to get the 20β wheels? Was there a fixed number on petrol xc40s? Other dealers at launch was offering diesel 1st edition with 20β wheels or petrol with 19β wheels (I spoke to 4 dealers in total).
Q2) the dealer I placed the order with have given me the option to take the 1st edition petrol 19β now or wait until post September 2019 for 1st edition thst may or may not come with 20β wheels. Your insights would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Q2) No brainer. Take it now. 19β wheels still look very good. Maybe try to get some compensation also. Could be tricky as the 20β come on the FE at no extra cost - but worth a try.
