C200 new model 12v socket UK

I’m picking up the new C200 petrol EQ sport premium plus soon but am told that a usb socket replaces the 12v socket in the front centre console on the uk version.
So is there a 12v socket anywhere? If not how is the compressor for the tirefit powered?

The dealer said that he’d looked at the car specifications and it did not have a 12 v socket, but on delivery I found it in the rear passenger compartment.

C200 Cabriolet AMG Line 2019MY
Found the 12V Socket

Our 19MY C200 Cabriolet was flashing low pressure warning on one our front tyres (only 2 PSI low). But as it flashes up on every few minutes when driving I need to attend to it as soon as it was convenient when I got home. Found only USB sockets in the front. Nothing in the Boot/ Trunk and nothing in the rear - until I realise I had missed the lip to open an 'ashtray' in the rear of the console in the back being all in black plastics - only to reveal another flap inside the ashtray covering a 12-volt socket.
The handbook claims 12-volt sockets are available in both the front and back- when we know it's replaced by USB sockets in the front. But with the rear one so well disguised, it may not be obvious to most (well to me anyway).
