In my 2003 S Type on leaving the cat the seat moves back and the steering
wheel gooes up and back, presumably to its default. On entering the car
pressing the remote results in the steering wheel, seat and mirrors all move
to their memory position .

The column adjuster switch has two positions. One called Column and the
other Auto. Setting the switch to Auto will give the behaviour you suggest.
The idea of the Auto mode is to allow for the easiest entry/exit possible.
The only down side of this is the wear and tear on the motors/wiring in the
steering wheel, and I have heard reports of failures because of this.
For more info check the drivers handbook Section 3-23

Yes, you are right. Despite the dealer telling me the car does not have the
feature it actually does. Auto button located and working. Thanks for your
help with this.
