I´m a 47 years old man from Sweden who just bought his first Bentley, a Mulsanne Turbo or a Turbo R.....

The seller says it´s a Mulsanne Turbo but the swedish veichle register says it´s a Turbo R!
I´ve look at a VIN "paper" that says it could be either one! Please, help me, if you know "the right answer"

It´s a 1984, thats for sure but.......
SCBZS0T08ECX08xxx I can read out that it is made in Crewe and a LHD with a turbo! The swedish papers says it got a mere 300hp but if it is a Turbo R it should be 330??
I like the car anyway, but it would be nicer to own a car thats made in app. 500pcs instead of the R that was made in many thousands but on the other hand got a more potent engine!

An 'S' in the 5th position in your VIN indicates this car is a Mulsanne.

See my SZ Series Shorthand Chassis Derivation Table to "decode" your VIN.

Thank you, Brian! Hopefully I can pursuade the swedish registry of motor vehicles to change the model..... sometimes it´s easier to get blood out of a stone than to make them change a incorrect information in their register but I will definitely try.........
