Yes it is very useful

I had it on my RS4 and even better version on the merc now which means it will steer in to the next lane just by tapping indicator.

This means I can up to date with my emails, this forum, eat my lunch and still carry on travelling

I see

Yes Merc is nice. As quick as my RS4 was, better handling , bigger (obviously), far better tech (this is pretty much a full option car but.....it is just missing a little something which I would say 90% of the fact it is missing a couple of important cylinders

V40 is a small car, but OK on motorways (though not a cruncher) and almost as fast as the S8 (250hp but light).
S8 is more for Autobahn bashing, our motorways are too slow and busy to use it as it should be.
