Range Rover Vogue - what do these buttons do?
Discussion
In your second picture (this is probably from a HSE/Vogue), the heated seat buttons are in the centre of the left and right temperature controls.
On the Vogue SE/AutoB, the seats were air cooled/heated, so there is the addition of rotary controls in the lower panel either side of the clock (as per your first picture), also pressing them allows just seat and back, or seat or back (if I remember right). At the same time, the heated seat buttons you see in the Vogue are gone and now solid, and replaced with temp symbols.

If you're only doing lowish annual mileage, the man maths = get a Supercharged 
It would be. Went from L322 V8 to Disco3 V8, wouldn't go Derv unless it was the 4.4 and even then the purchase price of the V8s set against the cost of diesel more than outweighs the paltry handful of extra MPG the diesels offer.RedLeicester said:

I have a JE remapped 4.4 that is almost as quick as a S/C but with loads more torque and has averaged nearly 31mpg over the last 7k miles according to the tacho. That's a bit more than a paltry saving over the 25k miles I do each year when compared to a S/C and the depreciation will be similar even if the initial outlay is higher. Obviously fewer miles per annum makes the difference closer. I think we're local to each other so you're welcome to try it if you want

I'll bet it's a bit of a monster! Still, £16k for an S/C vs £38k for a 4.4 is quite a lot of petrol!I do see however the 3.6 is getting cheaper now, more down to S/C sorts of levels, though I seem to recall that is somewhat less efficacious than the 4.4.

I bought my 4.2 S/C about 3 years ago (MY07 with terrain response), and at the time the 3.6 TDV8 equivalent was around £15k more. I had also been told real world mpg was not hugely better. Given higher service costs on diesel (generally), and my low annual miles, petrol was a no brainer.

Yeah, that sounds like a monster indeed

MPG is significantly better, getting out of the teens (the right direction) in a S/C is a bit of a dream but my 3.6 TDV8 used to average around 28, the last 4.4 was around 30 and current one (new model) is around 32.I bought my 4.2 S/C about 3 years ago (MY07 with terrain response), and at the time the 3.6 TDV8 equivalent was around £15k more.

MPG isn't necessarily the reason to buy, but it is better still with good performance, particularly the new one which can really move.
