Is that different from climate control?

http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=acc+in+a+car

Call if whatever the f*** you want, you know what I mean.

BMW calls their "climate control" ACC (temperature controlled etc).

Climate control can mean the regular heating/fan/ac controls while ACC usually tends to mean that everything is controlled automatically (you set a temp and fan speed, direction of airflow and heat/cold is controlled automatically.).

You must have got it when I said "Still no ACC option?" as the current custom doesn't have one (and the previous euro5 had a poor functioning one).

Thank you, I will. In future please be more specific, it saves time :lol:

“The first proper ACC system was Mercedes' Distronic system, which appeared on the S-Class limousine in 1999. This system not only controlled the throttle, but also the brakes to maintain a set distance to the vehicle in front.

Since then, car makers have embraced ACC, and it can be found on superminis, hatchbacks and sports cars, while the rising level of traffic on our roads means it's arguably a more useful feature than standard cruise control on its own, as it can adjust speed according to traffic flow.”

Automatic climate control came before "your" ACC, just saying.

Meanwhile, the only option I have on my price list is "air condition (manual AC)".

That’s gonna be a pretty basic van, you should aim higher, work a bit harder maybe.

Because the price/option list from ford reflects what van I'm buying?

You shouldn't throw stone in a glasshouse, the UK is known for it's poverty spec vans.
We have equipment's that are standard here that you must spec as an option.

Do you know how a spec sheet works?
On the poverty spec vans, aka UK spec the ac is an option.
Everything from trend spec and up its included.

Should that option not be visible then?
