When you say "modern" cars there is a world of difference between the old style of cruise control in the eighties, which "hunted" and either accelerated and braked


That is what the cruise control on a Jaguar XJ40 3.6 Sovereign auto I owned in 1990 used to do. Rather disconcerting.
Perhaps the 25 year old memories are still in my subconscious.

Was cruise control operated by vacuum then?
