I had cruise control fitted to one of my later cars, it looked nothing like the pictures you've posted. Also going by the sticker the English address would make me believe its an after market addition.

I agree with ALZ1933. I've seen several 944s with cruise control and that doesn't look like the unit Porsche use. An internet search for "Econocruise" identifies them as part of the "AE Group", a no-longer-trading, after-market manufacturer of cruise control units and speed-limiters for commercial vehicles.

The Porsche under-bonnet unit looked physically different and driver control was by means of a steering column mounted stalk.

Thanks Glen I Googled it also looks like they closed up few years ago so I'll have to search to see if there are any places repairing them thanks
