When I used to live in Switzerland, there was an excellent service known as Eurotax that allowed any private individual to bring up all the options on any given used car and even see the historical MSRP for a few CHF.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

When I used to live in Switzerland, there was an excellent service known as Eurotax that allowed any private individual to bring up all the options on any given used car and even see the historical MSRP for a few CHF. Never found an equivalent tool available to the general public over here… Eurotax appears to be part of Autovista / Glass’s and it does appear to be trade-focussed… https://glass.co.uk/vehicle-identification-specifi...

Edited by Mogul on Thursday 23 February 15:23 thanks mate, Checked them out but there doesn't seem a way to purchase anything online or any prices? which is a bit strange i presume its for people with a large trade account or something? I called and they just stated to fill the online form with what I want.Hm

Hi Looking at either the sticker in the Service Book or under the bonnet, you can find the option codes as specified at the time of manufacture. You can then 'decode' them by trying the Philip Raby Option Decoder page here https://philipraby.co.uk/porsche-option-codes or this one, from Stuttcars https://www.stuttcars.com/porsche-boxster-2009-opt...
