Just had a karoq sportline delivered (on lease). However, there are no black aero inserts in the alloys.

Should these be standard or would they have been an optional extra?

Thanks.

They seem to be the standard wheels as fitted to my MY21 Sportline, and the aero covers should have been fitted at the PDI I would have thought. But as it's a lease car, could they have removed them? My daughter has a leased company car, and she isn't even allowed to check the tyre pressures!!

Those don't look like the style of wheels that came with inserts. Didn't they change the style for the Sportline not so long ago ?
On the other hand , if that's a new vehicle I'd be more concerned about the state of those discs!!

I've been told the model I have is between April 2023 and October 2023 so doesn't come with the inserts. What do you mean about the discs? This car was just delivered today and only has delivery mileage on it

We have a 2020 Sportline with Vega 19in rims and that never came with the inserts. We also had Bridgestones fitted but couldn’t live with them, so uncomfortable. Changed to CrossClimates inside a month of owning the car.

My 73 Sportline came with Vega 19in , some earlier built were coming with the other aero wheels , if you dont like the aero covers and take them off you have to get nut covers and a centers .
