So as the 1.4TSi doesn't have a DSG option, has anyone still ordered the ACC? Just wondering if anyone had any experience as to whether it was at all worthwhile or a waste because the car can't change gear...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvbpS2a4aLg&feature=youtube_gdata_playerI test drove the golf with ACC + DSG, whilst I found the technology very clever and impressive it scared me to death, I know I'd of mistakenly thought it was active as I go plowing into a stationary car in front! Sometimes cars are too clever...

Super clever, standard with golfs equipped with acc come with aeb or some thing (automatic emergency braking). You'd have to check with the Leon spec but you'd have to be an idiot to crash one of these.in a straight line
That video is a bit too close for comfort.
Don't think I could trust the system.
Hummmmm decisions, £10 a month on our company scheme! This buying a new car lark is complicated
appreciate this is a bit old, but I've had a rental golf with a dsg and acc and although it was great in traffic (since it was more or less feet free) but at motorway speeds it was annoying as hell. anything less than the maximum couple of distances were a bit close for comfort, and having it out that far meant a lot of unnecessary speeding up and slowing down. I got about 4mpg less with that on vs the speed limiter at the same speed.
I tend to use cruise basically all the time (even at 30/40) so wouldn't spec ACC. One of the main reasons (along with the burberry trim) I didn't even bother to look at the golf.
Haven't ordered yet so the delay is fine! Thanks for the insight, sounds like normal cruise will be fine!
