Spec list and trim levels

I am currently looking for a D3. Is there anywhere online which will give me a list of all options on spec available? Comfort seats etc

Also, what are the "must have" options in your opinion?

Sorry, it was definitely a 4.2 this morning as it came up on my eBay alerts where I have specifically got my filters set to that, perhaps been amended by the seller?
