I'd just get the car so you can drive it already and then just buy the Display Key. Or see if the dealer will throw it in.

As much as I love the Display Key, I don't think it's worth holding up an order for 3-4 months and then still have no guarantee of it being available.

I know you have some UK specific things with the registration, though, so if that's a factor then it makes more sense.
Agreed, I even tried to get it written into my contract that should the Display Key become available that they discount it (fully or partially) if I take the car early. But the dealer couldn't commit to that, instead just writing in the contract that I had the right to amend my order if the Display Key (and Laser Lights) became available.

My car was pushed back to Feb-15 so I had got used to the idea of taking it then (or rather in March due to the registration change). Plus there were a couple of (personal) reasons why taking delivery in March may prove more beneficial than taking it in December... decisions, decisions LOL.
