Dahon D8 Speed vs. Vitesse

Hi all,
I'm new here and have a question regarding the Dahon D8 folding bike. I recently ordered a Dahon D8 Speed online which is due for delivery tomorrow.

However, a few days ago I noticed the dealer also has a Dahon D8 Vitesse. I'm new to folding bikes but noticed it was 200 GBP cheaper than the speed. I decided to contact the dealer about this but they seemed clueless suggesting there is no difference in the two other than the speed has a Chromoly frame and the Vitesse is Aluminium and slightly lighter.

This confused me a little as I paid more for a heavier bike that is supposedly no different.Although the pictures of the bike look ever so slightly different. I'm just a little bit upset because it feels like I've spent more for a heavier bike that provides no other benefit, and it's already been shipped now.

Can someone help me understand if there is any other benefits? I'm really struggling to find much info online comparing the twom

I tried posting the links but I cannot seem to as I'm new here and need 10 posts. But I ordered it from Acycles.

Many thanks
Jon
