They must be wondering about the sudden influx of build sheet requests.

xclens in Sweden posted above that he got his for a car originally sold in Japan so it doesn't look like it's limited to US spec cars.

I received a very quick answer from them, but it was only one page. I will try to attach it to this post if anyone cares to read it. I wish I knew more about my car!

Edit: And yes, my GT was originally individually ordered from Japan, but it was exported to Sweden a couple of years ago.

Hello @xclens ,
That is a bit strange, one page, and a different layout than I received.
Do you want me to send in your VIN and see if I get a more detailed report like I received ?

Must be the only one that they refuse to send the information from Thelema in Bentley.

​​​​​Hello @xclens ,
Well, this is strange, does each Bentley representative use which ever system they choose to do the search, as now we have three different formats as to what comes back to us, and that's just you and me, my sheet actually has the Bentley logo and the words "BOOM Searches", whereas the one you received did not, nor does the build sheet that I received for your vehicle, yours came back as 6 pages now, although the item count is roughly the same, 130 items for me, and 134 for you, just spread out on more pages.

@Pablen84 ,
Are you saying that Thelema sent you an email back refusing to supply the information ?

​​​​​​EDIT: @xclens ,
See attached PDF.

Thank you so much, Johnny! What a difference.

That is such a great feature to have if/when you try to find a new owner for the car.

So if I am guessing correctly, the "Power Latching to Doors - (EST GZ2)" means that my car should have soft-close doors? Which it at the present time doesn't have, on either side. Is there a fuse related to this or how/where do I begin error-checking this?

Maybe power latching doors just refers to a central locking feature?

I have the same entry on mine and no other entry regarding soft close so I assume that's it since mine work.
