I have cruise control on my car, would love it my van but I didn't think it was that expensive although never priced it up

Our van came with it fitted as standard, great on long motorway journeys.

We had ours fitted last week by "Towtal" very happy with it as well £340 ish
Motorhome Towbars, A Frames & Motorhome Accessories From Towtal
You can stop over for free too
Stopped at Dave Newall on the way back to get some warranty work done on our deadlocks even though they were over the year Dave sorted it for us free of charge. His identical cruise control was cheaper though
They have an area close at hand for stop overs as well

Think you can stop over at Conrad Anderson. I fitted one of theirs to my T4. took a while but well worth it. Wouldn't be without it now.

We have stayed at Conrad Andersons a few times now. I can get my 7m Motorhome in to the yard OK. Water and Electric available. You are parked in a locked compound in front of the workshop which is behind the house/office. We were in there when the earthquake struck a while back. I can vouch for the quality of their work.
