Memory seats including the electronic adjustment for your seats which includes the thigh support (which is what I think you're talking about) adjustment.
If you already have got the car... not entirely sure how much more can be done as it would be quite expensive to replace the seats entirely.
Did you test drive a pure before you got yours?
No, I have Memory seats. The Manual says that the Evoque has 8 way seats. The details of the Prestige at the dealer says that it has 8 way seats. The Pure Plus with Memory seats says it only has 6 way seats. I did test drive it but not for a few hours of highway driving which is what it takes to really learn all of the details of a car. I didn't expect the manual to be misleading.
In the manual, the bottom seat switch moves 3 different ways. Front to back, the rear portion of the switch moves up and down, and the front portion of the switch moves up and down. The front of my seat switch is stationary. I took it back to the dealer and he said that option is not available for my model car. I have all possible options available on the Pure Plus except the bigger rims and rear entertainment.

By the way... I feel like I am tilted forward all of the time which is very annoying. I would love to lift the front of the seat up 1". It was one of the first questions I asked the salesperson at delivery and he said they don't have the option.
You understand what I'm saying, if you lift the seat up it tilts forward. The only way to tilt it back is to drop the back of the seat down... and then the seat is too low. Maybe only the Prestige lets you lift the front up, if your Dynamic doesn't. Horrible oversight by Range Rover since it makes a huge difference on how much taller people will be able to like the car.
I'm attaching the page from the manual. Motion #6, seat tilt, is missing from the Pure Plus in the U.S., maybe it's there in the UK, I don't know. #4 seat raise and lower is misleading in the manual because it says it raises the seat up but it actually tilts the seat forward which raises the back of the seat up and forward while the front of the seat stays low and you feel like you are sliding forward. To add to the problem, the floor of the Evoque slants forward so with every bump you can slide into the pedals and have to scoot back into the seat again. I took it back to the dealer and said #6 on the swtich was broken, he said it isn't meant to move, it just doesn't come with my model. No mention of that difference on the Range Rover build-it website before purchase.
