Option list by VIN number

Anyone know if there is any website that provides the option list of a Bentley by typing the VIN number? I need the option list for 2 Continental GT and 1 Flying Spur.

Thanks

I got mine yesterday from the parts guy at the Bentley dealership. With your VIN he can print out what they call Full Vehicle Specifications using the BOOM Search. This give every feature your car came with including any "cost options".


The codes for features/options are listed as they are on your window sticker and in your service manual. But you also get a plain English definition of what that code means. For example: Cross Stitching - Portland (STX SP).

The nearest bentley dealership is 350km from me.. So, there is no way to get this from online vin decoders?

Perhaps its online but I know not where.


Try calling their parts department and talking the rep into printing it out and mailing it to you.


My dealership is 115 miles away but sometimes it is worth the trip.

Just contacted Bentley in my country and they say they can't give me that info because it's internal info.

I was already expecting this, their service here is very bad, they don't like us buying Bentleys from outside their dealership so they close their doors when we need some help like this for example.

If any user from here works at a dealership and can give me the extras list for the 3 cars, I would be very thankful.


Regards

Since your local dealer was not helpful try calling some other dealership.

When I bought my car used I contacted every dealership that had serviced the car over the years. Only one was not very helpful in sending me all the service records they had.

Offer the parts guy a few pounds to print and mail you the info yours seek, if he is resistant.

nguyennhatquang, thank you for trying to help. I've just found there is a sticker in the trunk with the option codes the car has, and I've already taken a picture and found on google the VAG option code list, and I've already seen what extras the cars have. There is also a sticker like this on the schedule maintenance manual but 2 of my cars didn't have the manuals, so I've used the ones from the trunk to get the codes deciphered.

If anyone is trying to do this - I spent months compiling my own window-sticker decode tools. It took a while to get a Bentley one but this should work:

It should give:
- Original MSRP
- Options
- Full Monroney Sticker

http://www.wikilender.com/bentley-wi...s-vin-decoder/

If this doesn't work let me know! It works on most 2012+ Bentley VWAG products.

It doesn't work on my 2005 VIN.
I can't open the resulting PDF.

jim2331 can only hope to improve
....just curious...what are you trying to establish. The options that you have on existing car, or options that were available that may not have come on your car...thanks JimB

Yeah the decoder generally only works on 2012+ cars. Most OEM's didn't have good DB systems before then.
