    - Can't lift a tailgate
    - Can't operate a key In a lock
    - need the car to adjust their seats for them when they open the door
    - hate pressing a little button twice to open all the doors
    - turn lights on at dusk
    - put a park brake on
    - plug in a phone
    - dip headlights
    - reverse a car without sensors

    And it goes on and on....

    So why not automate seating Disco 5 and Bear
    The last one on the list should be mandatory on all vehicles,coupled with a camera.A camera by itself is not good enough,as some have unfortunately found out.

    This technology is a life saver.

    As for the rest I can do with out them,but maybe I am from the old school.

    Each to their own.

    My 2003 D2a HSE had cutting edge technology, a cassette player and a CD stacker under the driver's seat!! Half way through the vehicles service life and both are useless.

    My 1997 Defender has a single DIN radio. Now fitted with a $120 radio that has Bluetooth to my phone/music/ GPS. Though I suppose the older Defender is actually a "newer" car, as it's only a quarter of the way through it's service life.

    I doubt tomorrows phones will support the apps needed to change the seat position on the D5.

    Considering people's refusal to accept lack of backwards compatibility in electronics it will be safe for a long long time.
