Oh no! I’ll need to contact my dealer and find out if it’s the same story with them. Not sure what to do now :-(

Got my New Grandland 1.2 Ultimate on the 1st of March, I was told by the dealer ( Pentagon Sheffield ) I was the first in the UK to get the 2022 version which included night vision and different alloys. 33 grands worth. Night vision is superb and makes driving at night so much better.
As you can see it came with different wheels from what was advertised and if I wish to have the original ones I could be waiting 12 months to get them, but to be honest I prefer the ones that it came with. Slightly disappointed with the space in the rear. Once you add two child seats you need to be ultra-slim to fit between them, unlike my previous car. (Ford Kuga)

All in all, I'm so happy with the car, so comfortable and so nice to drive. Once you finally get it I'm sure like me you will love it.

Looks really nice they are the 18" wheels that used to be fitted to Sport Nav/SRI and Griffin. The Gloss black version was on the latter SRi now GS Line including new one. A white 2022 GS Line drove down our street last week and I do like the new look especially the painted gloss black bumper and side mouldings easier to clean as my one bugbear is keeping all the plastic clean as the dirt tends to get ingrained and not always easy to clean.

I noted that the wheels are 19inch and everything seems to work fine although you would have thought that auto wipers would mean AUTO, nope you have to activate them every time you stop the engine bit strange. Also, both front seats have electronic height and lumbar support but then become manual to slide forward and back, plus manually adjust the backrest. Why not just make it all electronic with a memory? to me, that would have made more logical sense.
Safety features like lane departure warning work really well, but I have to say I love the car so far and I don't have any major complaints, YET!!!

You get wider tyres at least at 225 55 R18 v 205 55 R19 standard fit. I assumed they were the same memory seats as fitted to the Grandland X (drivers side only on our Elite) but VX had seen sense and fitted dual memory seats. :cry:

We will stick look at a Hybrid Ultimate come change in another 18 months. I am sure more spec will have been removed by then - but fingers crossed it still comes with four wheels... :mrgreen:

Nice Grandland, ive ordered a carbon black ultimate too, do you have to pay extra for night vision like it says on vauxhall site?, when i ordered mine in september last year, the sales associate didnt quite know what night vision was going to be but it was included on the ultimate i was ordering. Bit peeved to see it now a extra 1500 a year addon on the website :(.

Congrats on getting it soo quick , i hope mine and everyone elses turns up soon, but im not holding my breathe.

Did the rounds the other day, a bit bored so had a wander around and asked four dealers lead times for their Grandland equivalent - ish. All were six months, but no commitment to the delivery date. I think the term is, commit to buy, then suck it and see.
Yeah i've got a 2022 Ultimate Hybrid, saw it on Autotrader last Thursday at a dealer, test drove it Friday and picked it up Wednesday, brand new registration

Got my Ultimate, but it hasn't got the night vision which i think would have been a £1300 cost option, am quite jealous of you for having that.
