Electric seat adjustment has manual adjustment beat on refining position, and very few modest cars have them even as an option. Even some cars that should have full electric only have partial electric adjustment which leaves you with the worst of both
I never realised how much I used the memory seats on my Omega until I bough the RClass. The seats were fully electric but no memory, which meant that it seemed to take an age to get the seat back to how you wanted it when it was moved fro whatever reason.
My ML has both electric column & seats with memory ..... but manual interior mirror!
no electric rear view mirror is common across the industry, its position needs to alter based on if you drive in the morning or evening so was found to never be in the right place. Hence there were complaints it was never right due to the simple fact the users spine was compressing during the day (true fact this ).
Of course, the smart rear view mirrors totally eliminate the need now anyway
On the Omegas, I could set the mirror so it was perfectly usable early morning through to late evening - granted, it wasn't always absolutely perfect, but still gave decent view behind
.
With Mrs TB being such a shortarse, its a constant bloody thing now in the Shaguar, grrr. And a joy when I get back in TBE. Simple things make things easier
I'd say, couldn't they have linked it to the clock, and done very minor adjustments throughout the day... ...but the bloody XJ can't even set the bloody time itself
Smart mirrors/virtual mirrors should have started becoming standard on more premium marques ages ago, though I guess potential issues around LCD glare/distraction. But keeping the memory on the interior mirror until such time they are usable would have been a grand idea.
