A few personal 'would rather not haves'- auto wipers, auto headlamps, electric tailgate / door closures, and electric seat adjustment! One of the better ideas that I would spec- electric folding door mirrors.

Talking of electric seats, when it came out, LR were making big boasts about the fact that the latest Disco has electric fold and adjustment for both rear rows. Not only that, but via a phone app, you can fold or unfold the seats from anywhere in the world! But why the **** would you want to.....

The problem comes when one of the sensors dies or is out of phase with the others and then shuts down the whole system and the only way you can get it to reset is to plug it into the dealers diagnostic system.
