I've just picked up my loan D4 for the next 5 days, as part of the dealer trying to make up for the fact that delivery has been delayed from today until sometime in October!
Anyway, here's my question: This is definitely a MY15 car, not a MY16, is an HSE Luxury, yet it has no aircon, no high level vents, no temperature or fan controls for the middle passengers. I knew that I was going to lose rear aircon, but where have the rest of the controls gone? The 2015 HSE that I took out for a brief test drive, just prior to ordering, had them 
What can I expect in a 2016 car?
I'll be a bit miffed if there are no vents or controls of any kind 
Can anyone help here please and tell me what to expect?
PS: Very different to the FL2! It's going to take some time to adjust  Fuel consumption under gentle driving is not bad at all. Use all of the performance and it's another story  2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: FL2 as a second car
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

Managed to find the answer. I didn't previously understand this fully, but it appears that those controls were all tied in with "Rear Climate Control" which included the, now missing, aircon. So the version that I tried had this fitted as an option which is now no longer an option 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4

Yep that's about right. I also think that rear air con / climate was an option on the Luxury on vehicles up to 15MY. Dubbs or someone else with a Luxury can confirm. MY15 D4 SDV6 HSE Corris Grey - Gone
MY05 D3 TDV6 SE Zambezi silver Auto Alpaca leather - Gone
MY02' Seat Leon 1.6s Metallic Black cloth trim with a hint of mould
