Agreed, I don't really see it as a design feature for reducing drag.  
Hung like Einstein, smart as a horse.

I'm not so sure, I mean the rest of the car is really streamlined, looks like it was designed in a wind tunnel

I suppose if you were literally in the middle of nowhere and had no use at all for them you might fold them but I think that's more taking advantage of a standard design. All cars could claim an aerodynamic improvement due to reduced frontal area for folding mirros too, so it isn't even unique

Seem to remember arguments between manufacturers in the 80's on CD factors, some quoting with, and some without wing mirrors in their futile arguments to prove one car was more streamlined than another, irrespective of the fuel consumption  my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

Must of changed on the newer ones, think all the old ones are same and set to a speed limit for the mirrors, the motors don't seem all that strong maybe they uprated them Freelander 57 plate XS Blue Auto

Thank you for posting. Still trying to find a few of them. Will keep looking. Wait...you get 17in steel wheel options, diesel engines, manual transmissions, cloth seats, optional sunroofs and G4 kit!

The mirrors fold close at any speed and re open at any speed also

Mine dont close at any speed... I have to be under 10mph to fold but mine do open - never checked to see the max for that though...

Refers to plugging in a Bluetooth enabled "reader" into the OBD port and you can
Monitor live data off the CAN networks.

I have to work on monkey see monkey do at my age.

So the OBD port is where ?

Any mobile phone with bluetooth or a particular type/system ? My phone would not do it for sure.

CAN networks. Does that give data to a particular APP ? What on there ?

Sorry but only ever set points in my day with a meter and thought that was being a clever .  FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
