ACC works fine in my VW Passat B8, I mean it is annoying it wont undertake middle lane hoggers doing 65MPH but quickly turning it off and on again lets me do that or not do that and go around them...

For reference, VAG did release a software update in December which (appears to) address the ACC issues on all but the earliest built cars. The hardware on those is different and the fix is still to be released.

Presumably you need the dealer for that...?

Yes, it's a dealer only update.

ACC is a must have for me, makes motorway stuff just effortless and, in particular combined with active lane keeping it lets you pay more attention to what cars around you are doing by not having to constantly adjust speed or make tiny steering adjustments to keep in your lane.

The systems on automatic cars will bring you down to a complete stop too, fantastic in slow moving traffic jams. My car has speed sign recognition but unfortunately doesn't adjust the cars speed based on it, would be great if it did.

Makes 6hrs of motorway driving seem like nothing.

The undertaking thing really isn't a big deal, and if there's a line of 3 or 4 cars you need to go past, one tap of the accelerator pedal is enough to go past all of them.
