The page in autocar about the different reviewers views on ride quality of the new VW Tourreg make interesting reading imo. It just goes to show everyone has different views on ride quality and noone even reviewers are right or wrong. You have to sample it for yourself to make your mind up.
My view is if you have 18" monza shadows ACC for me would be a must on the mk6 as the ride imo is much harder than the mk5 GTI was but as i said everyones view is different.

WHITEY: You will really regret not getting ACC. It is a very, very worthwhile option. Ditch some another option but get this.

The ACC in 'comfort' is truly wonderful on motorway journeys and gives the car a limo feel. The smoothness is uncanny.
For London driving, I leave the car in 'comfort' all the time as that's what it does. Very relaxing. I could not bear the jiggly ride in 'normal' on our lousy roads.
It is a wonderful option. :smiley:

As for Cruise Control, I've used it once and I had it retro-fitted by VW for £162.50 (fitted & inc VAT) as it was cheaper than a factory order! Strange that. The reason I got it was it makes the left lever look more 'technical'. :rolleyes:

How does it make the left lever look more technical?

Gizzy, it's got a little lever at the top for the Cruise Control.
You really need it, my dear, to make your car complete. :evil:
