"Lazy Seats" So cool !!

carlpenn · 2nd October 2009, 16:32

We all hate it when "Our other half" uses the car and rearranges our perfect positioning of Seats and mirrors etc etc.

I just discovered today that on my 75 (I would assume on most if not all 75's with Electronic adjustable seats) that I have the "Lazy Seats" function.

Yes, now instead of having to tediously squeeze in to the car, or lean down strenously and press the "Mem 1" Button (lol), all I do is hold down my Unlock button on the key fob for an extra second or two and my seat swiftly glides into my preset position...............

Rover certainly hit the spot there...

.......lol............

Now, I have to go recharge the Battery after spending an hour playing with the keys !!!!!!!!!! ha ha haaaaa

Only on the early model seemingly. Nice isn't it Carl

It can be such a hassle searching for that memory button don't you think

Yes, such a nuisance when trying to switch on the Heated seats on a cold morning and trying to find the Memory button lol.

I really should sepnd a bit more time reading my Handbook, it seems full of little surprises lol

It's not so funny when you only have one key (as I do) and then discover it is set to Position 2 on the memory.

I had set my position as 1 (naturally) and my wife's as number 2 (although at 5'2" my wife thinks my car is too big and has only driven it 3 times in the year I have had it

).

I only discovered the lazy seat function after I had had the car a few months and made the mistake of trying it whilst sat in the seat. I ended up crushed up against the steering wheel and headlining as the seat moved to my wee wife's driving position (by the way, you can't stop the adjustment once it starts

). It was funny (or she thought so anyway)...

Great feature (if I ever get a 2nd key).

Ironically, my Key is set to preset 1 (My position) and my wifes key to preset 2 (her position) , kinda spooky lol........

Yes.

A nice function.

I tend to be the sole driver but it's useful when you've had the seat in a different position say, for cleaning or when working in the car.

And with a flip of a single button Pauls latest security mod moved the drivers seat forward, pinning the thief to the steering wheel
