I had a new automatic Mazda 3 as a hire car, and was astounded to see it had radar cruise control.
It worked fantastic, and really appreciated its function.

So can any one contribute to what used cars this is available on, as no way can I afford a new car.

Also, I would take automatic over manual every time.

So please, what makes , models, and what year please.

MK6 Golf Gti. Not standard fit, but they are about. Can also be retrofitted by a dealer, but no idea on cost.

Off the top of my head

Lexus LS460, Honda Legend (possibly Accord too as an option), Volvo V40, S60 from 2011 (as an option again), Vauxhall Astra J (very rare, option).

VW Golf R Mk7 from 2014 onwards has radar cruise and lane-assist, and jam-assist from 2017. Works fantastic. It is possible to do 95% of a commute without touching the accelerator or brake, and 25% without using the steering wheel. It is semi-driverless.

Ive used this in a Merc E class, A VW Golf and a few different Volvo's.

All of which caused a near miss accident. I personally think this feature is very dangerous and never use it when I have a car with it fitted.
