One of the great advantages of having cruise control fitted to your Mercedes Van is that you can concentrate on the road ahead of you without having to constantly keep an eye on the speedometer. There are cameras everywhere these days all waiting to punish a momentary lapse of concentration, making the honest driver have to constantly check how fast he’s going.
When I drive with cruise control on, I often find that I end up at my destination much more relaxed. I often pass motorists as they tend to slow down a bit when they start to climb a hill until they realise and creep slowly back up to the speed limit. It’s not really until you have driven with this feature that you realise how much others speed alters while they’re driving.
The Mercedes Van Cruise Control system has an additional feature (other than of course being able to maintain your speed). It is also able to limit your speed. This is ideal when you enter an area controlled by average speed cameras and the compact stop-start nature of congested traffic makes it unsuitable to use cruise control. You can easily set a limit whilst driving and the system will not allow you to exceed it unless you use one of its override “triggers”.
If you didn’t specify cruise control on your Mercedes van when you ordered it, then all is not lost. S&B Commercials have a very popular offer that we sent out in our latest Email Newsletter. We are now in a position where we can retro-fit the Mercedes-Benz genuine cruise control system to your van using the proper Mercedes-Benz wiring looms, control stalks etc at a special price.
This limited offer is available at £199.99 for Mercedes Vito Vans and £249.99 for Mercedes Sprinter Vans (the extra cost is because the accelerator pedal needs to be replaced). These special prices include genuine parts and labour.
