Hello guys,

I'm thinking of changing the steering wheel to something more classic, that will match the look of my 1991 Mayfair British Racing Green Mini.

Currently found two of favourites from Ebay,

http://cgi.ebay.co.u...d2#ht_500wt_922


I like them, but they are not cheap either (from my newbie opinion). It seems like I'll have to get the boss kit as well?

What are the thoughts of other Mini experts on this? any advice? or even suggestion where I could find cheaper (or better) steering wheels?

Cheers guys, and have a good weekend all!

i think you get what you pay for with steering wheels buy a cheap one and they tend to look and feel cheap in my experience
ive got the mota lita one that you listed its the nuts feels solid and looks good quality

I currently have the Mountney one, but found it a bit too big. So I bought a ten inch Atrali wheel with boss from Himley today for £4 (one extreme to the other :thumbsup: ). I'll have to see how I get on with it, I doubt i'm strong enough :crazy:
