Richard, I was told an analogue output of speed or if not available then they fit the GPS sensor. The importer / distributor in Manningtree suggested he use his best dealer. When I mentioned the guy in Derby Gary & I were with this week that is who it is. I'll keep you posted.

I am persuing the cruise control. It seems it can be done. Ideally I need to find an analogue speed signal off the canbus. Does anyone know where that would be?
The alternative is a GPS sensor. I found a specialist who seemed to know what we need, problem is they can't get the IC chips for the unit we need for CANbus, but I'll try and dig out the contact info

I'm inclining to the simpler stand alone GPS that doesn't have to mess with MMC's ECU/ BCU bits. Will update you next week if a KISS solution will work

Connecting to CanBus is not that onerous John. You tap into back of OBD2 plug. You need +12V, Ground, Can High & Can Low, connected to decoder to give speed pulse output. I would be concerned using GPS to control speed as you would loose signal when satellite coverage is lost, in cities, tunnels etc.

I know Richard. I'll let you know what the importer says & then talk to Brian in Derby.

I am booked in to get it fitted 26/4. Cost £595 being done by the importer's best agent who is based in Derby. Will update you all later.
