Thanks all for your advice.
The car was first registered in May and has a 21 plate. The deal was good but only as much as another dealer quoted on Carwow. I would have been looking for that reduction on a factory order. The trade in was marginally better than I had expected. Definitely not a cut price deal.
Dealer found a car that matched my wishes at another BMW dealer and I signed up rather than place a factory order. I never saw the car until I picked it up. It is a 21 model year lci and seems to have all the knob and whistles I expected.
I think I will have to accept the position since the car is fine really but I have now found out the service schedule is all wrong since it started from date of manufacture. The car will be demanding a service in a years time rather than two. I will ask them to pay for that.
I wonder what sitting around for a year did to the battery. I will ask about that since I am only getting 21 miles range out of what is supposed be an improved battery.
As you say, everything will probably be ok but I know I will certainly be asking for the build date if buying a car from stock in future
