Here's a question for those who know about this kind of thing: Is cruise control more fuel efficient than normal driving?.
No it generally uses more fuel but depends on driving style

I'm in the no camp ..tho it' probably marginal.
Is cruise control more fuel efficient than normal driving?
More economical for me to be in control rather than the cruise, it seems I can anticipate things it cannot see.
Maybe try going a little slower with it, I ease up to around 60, enough to overtake HGV's & rarely have to come off it, I went from Sheffield M1, A42/M42, M5, M50 on way to Swansea without touching brake or accelerator except to pull into the services on the M5 & then onto the M50, the Rav reported 58mpg, although I suspect it was lying as they all do.This is why I only use it on clear roads - if there's any traffic, I find myself constantly having to override the cruise control anyway.

Sorry didn't realise you lived near the car park, okay then maybe CC is not for you, but if you ever come North of Brum where people are not so ignorant/arrogant drivers (although that's changing) try it, I reckon somewhere around 130 miles without touching a pedalI despair.
