The dealer tells me that not many people go for this option. However I have been using Adaptive Cruise Control in my Lexus LS430 for nearly ten years ( The joys of owning a Lexus....you're spoiled...lol ) and after such a long time it's very addictive for freeway use where traffic speed is constantly changing between 50 and 75. That is: I get withdrawal symptoms. If I use ordinary cruise control in loaner cars I half-expect the car to know to slow down when the car in front does, and when it doesn't it's unnerving. So I switch off the cruise control completely.
Anyone have it on their XJ and like it? It's quite an expensive option (except on the Supersport where I believe it's a standard feature).
I had cause to use it a short time ago on the XKR 5.0 Supercharged Coupe AND convertible that Jaguar kindly loaned me for a few hours to play in. Beautiful cars, extremely fast and very addictive!!
Whilst on the motorway cruising I used the adaptive cruise control ( quite unnerving for someone not used to it - you really kinda take your life in your hands the first few times ) and it was amazing.....a really useful feature I found, although unsure as to how often I'd really use it. me personally? As an add on option to pay for, I would'nt have it......as part of the setup included, of course!
Sorry, not much help I know

Should I go cold turkey or feed my habit?
