Question Wedgwood Blue Dealer Launch Cars

Are there any members here who own a 1999 registered Wedgwood Blue Connoisseur 2.5 V6 on a T or V plate, with EXACTLY the following spec:

Neptune Blue Personal Line Leather Interior
Cruise Control
Electric Sunroof
Driver's Memory Seat
Traction Control
Electric Rear Sunblind
High Line Sat Nav inc. TV
Headlamp Power Wash
Hi-line Message Centre instrument pack & trip computer
15 inch Crown Alloy wheels (or possibly 17 inch Serpent Alloys)



But DO NOT have:
Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror
Reversing Sensors
& Harmon Kardon Premium Audio Upgrade

I ask this because in another recent thread Sydneymj wrote this:

and it would appear that at least two members on here have exactly that spec of car, and both have very close VIN numbers.

It has been a puzzle to me for a long time that a collegue of mine's Wedgwood Blue Connoisseur SE, has everything it should have to make it an SE (according to the brochures), except for the missing reversing sensors & auto dimming rear view mirror.

If it turns out that he owns a dealer launch/demo CONNOISSEUR with the SE extras of:

Memory Seat
Cruise Control
Electric Rear Sunblind
Hi Line Message Centre instrument pack with trip computer

And optional extras of:

Electric Sunroof
Headlamp Power Wash
High Line Sat Nav
Traction Control
& Neptune Blue Interior

that would explain why this hybrid spec existed, as MG Rover could have specifically optioned these cars for launch purposes.

Can anyone else say if their car's match the above, so we can confirm all this please:lol:
