I found it quite disconcerting for a while when the adaptive cruise control would knock it into neutral and then use the engine start stop to turn off the engine - usually on the motorway going down the hill into Leeds or after going over the Pennines. 1600kg of car freewheeling with the engine off at 70 odd mph seems a bit dangerous to me.
