Try to buy locally and support locally (LBS). If this is your first eMTB you will need the support (updates, upgrades, repairs etc).
Type of motor would be my second choice. There’s 4-5 good motor manufacturers. My preference is Bosch.
And you can always upgrade components in the future.

It's good deals on Levo these days if you got a shop not to far away from where you live.
Buying online is a no no.

Suggest you call Whyte HQ and ask 'customer services' which dealer(s) might have stock in your size. Is what I would do.

Buying online isn't to be entirely ruled out IMHO. Yes, support local where possible - but when every pound is a prisoner, it pays to shop around and sense check at the very least.
If you're competent on the tools and don't necessarily need much/any LBS support, or there isn't a decent one close by - there's deals to be had.
Blazing Bikes have built, set up and hand delivered my last two steeds, and I would highly recommend Will and the crew. Granted they're mainly Trek and Orbea I believe, but you get the point.
www.wheelbase.co.uk still have stock @£4699
