Sorry to revive an old thread.... and to cause angst for those of us without the Jewel Filler Cap....
I see that there are now several versions but it's not clear to me if they are 'backward' compatible?
I have a UK early 2010 GT (so pre update of the info unit.) Would the latest Jewel fuel cap work which look like these?
Or will I need one like this?
Mine is the '3 click type'
Thanks...

oooh I like both of those but the bottom one looks more classy.
The top one looks like it should be fitted to a race car and has had a B stuck on it.
Imo the plastic one as standard is a bit of a disgrace. As is the tiny drain to the filler cap compartment.
So my fuel cap has a broken teether so its kind of annoying trying to hold it while fueling up. Anyone know what these run? I agree is completely unnecessary but again same could be said about the car itself…… haha.
NVM, I am able to google myself. Wasn’t able to delete other post.
I know you said never mind, but I thought I would just throw this used for 5 months Jewel cap I saw on eBay for $350, or the new standard cap with strap for $77 also on eBay, out there.

Hello @Frank ( Sunnyside ) ,
I just saw this thread, and I agree 100% all around on your comments.
As far as the cap on the top, I believe that is only for the Bentayga, but I could be wrong.

Cheers Johnny.
The thing that annoys me is the size of the drain. Ive had water right over to the top of the filler cap. Luckily it seals well.. Local Bentley opc told be to tear the drain pipe out and let it drain naturally. Seems to work and no sign of water in the rear 1/4 , which was an initial concern.

Thanks Johnny and Frank - bought a slightly used non-Bentayga one and it fits just fine on the 2010 GT...
