Markmbaha1,
I am familiar with the Fold-in Mirrors, Mark, but what you have been asking is how do you make them fold down for Parking! I don't have the Fold-in Mirrors on my 2005 XKR....Just the Right -Hand Mirror that drops....You might have one's similar to mine but I doubt it on a 2001 XK8....

I would never use the point down function. I am looking for the fold in function you operate by placing the R L selector switch into the middle and pulling the toggle button back toward you. As mentioned above someone said the fold in feature is on all xk8 but the lowest grade with cloth seats. I am merely trying to determine if I have the feature because when I follow the instructions nothing happens. If I have it and they are not functioning, I'll try to fix them. If not, it's a moot point. Thanks

The point down for parking doesn't seem to work - yet.

MARKMBAHA1,
I'm not familiar with a Mirror that turns-in for Parking? The only Mirror I have that moves is the Right Hand (Passenger-side) Mirror that I can make Drop so I can see to back-up....Is this what you are talking about?
If so, the way it works is: Push the selector to the Right -side then Pull the Right-Hand adjustment stick back and the Mirror drops down so you can see what is on the Right hand side of the Car.....Is this what you are trying to do?
It is just to easy Mark!

I said I'd distract the grandkids and have a fiddle and yes the passenger (left on UK) mirror folds in, the driver's side does not but reading around it seems I might need to mess about manually a bit to restore this functionality. My car is not basic spec. and if yours is not base then you might expect it to have fold in.

I think it's cloth seats and also you have answered your own question as you have memory buttons which must surely move you away from base.
Have you hunted the relevant fuse down yet?
Edit: Do your memory seats work OK?
