Hello from Spain

Hello, my name is Pablo, I am from the south of Spain and I started to ask some quiestions about Bentley but I didn't a formal presentation. Sorry

Here is the Bentley I bought for my father's 75 birthday. The car is a 2008 Gt Speed and there are many things I have to learn. Unfortunatly the car came with a broken Key, I hope to resolve It as soon as possible.

I have been looking how to listen music in the car by bluetooth but there is no option. I would like to know How do You listen music by the cable? With an ipod? I Tryed with a pen drive but I can't see the name of the song, only track "x".

I hope to learn from You. Thanks for all



I'll try to make better pictures in the street.

Hello Pablo,

Welcome to the forums! I have a beloved dog named Pablo. How kind of you to purchase a Bentley for your father. Looks like a beautiful dark blue color!

I have a 2007 GT that doesn't have original bluetooth capabilities, but you can read more about the option I have in my car here:

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...streaming.html

Unfortunately the artist or title doesn't show on the main screen; you have to have a newer model Bentley for that. But there are surely other options available as well if you want to stream music/conversations from your phone.

Thank you very much for your information, in the case that by bluetooth we can see the title of the song and I am wondering whether to use a pen drive. The car will be little used, I suppose so we can live with it. It is a pity that the multimedia system of this car cannot be updated, it is a brilliant car anyway

There are unfortunately not many older multimedia systems (for any type of car) that are able to be easily upgraded.

Have you looked at the Tesla-type screens that many members here have purchased and installed? I ordered one, but I haven't installed it yet.

Installing one of those screens will most definitely increase the resell value of your Bentley.

¿Ha mirado las pantallas tipo Tesla que muchos miembros aquí han comprado e instalado? Pedí uno, pero aún no lo he instalado.

instalación de una de esas pantallas definitivamente aumentará el valor de reventa de su Bentley.

Thank you very much Xclens for the information on the tesla screen but I don't really like the idea of ​​changing the original aesthetics of the car. The ideal is a carplay with the original equipment but that is impossible.

I put a screen similar to the one you show me on my Porsche Carrera and I keep it on but many times I think about going back to the original aesthetics. Perhaps you use the car practically every day, in my case it is not possible, I move in utility cars within the city and for the use that I give it I can adapt.

Hi Pablo

https://www.carcommunications.co.uk/...-music-adaptor

I have the same issue as you on my 2007 GT. After a bit of research in the last few weeks I ordered the above here in the UK to stream music from my phone. It has arrived and is being fitted early next week. Happy to let you know how it goes.

Very nice GT you have

Tengo el mismo problema que tú en mi GT 2007. Después de investigar un poco en las últimas semanas, ordené lo anterior aquí en el Reino Unido para transmitir música desde mi teléfono. Ha llegado y se instalará a principios de la semana que viene. Feliz de hacerle saber cómo va.

Muy agradable GT tiene
Thank You, You also have a very nice one!!
