Here's mine, old pics but still the same on there:

 

 

 

 

 

Standard MPi Black Leather steering wheel, with an Autobots sticker stuck over the top of the Cooper one

[Black.Ghost]

I have the Mota Lita John Cooper signed wheel in mine. I love it. I have always wanted one, since I got my first Cooper. The first Cooper has a Richbrook wheel in it. One of the things I never got around to replacing but it will be done when it gets restored in the end. 

 

I also like the Mota Lita wooden ones in the right car. But as mine came with the ML one, there is no way I am changing it. It just needs a bit of polish on the metal to bring it up nicely. The leather is still in great condition fortunately.

Something a tad different!

 

The wheel is pretty much a rebranded Sparco; same quality but nearly half the price!

Are those paddles necessary?

[Black.Ghost]

Are you planning on making the paddle shifts actually work, in which case, what engine are you going for as I assume it can't be done to an A-series?

Moggyton:- ummmm........................ yes

 

Although I'd prefer it if they were linked to a gearbox!

 

Black Ghost:- They do work but not as "conventional" paddles, I have a Z-Car mini and switchgear is minimal, I really didn't fancy the usual stalks and this seemed like a good idea at the time! The indicators are the orange buttons, white = horn and the paddles are for high beam switch / flashing and windscreen wash/wipe.

 

I realise they are going to get some haters as they are paddles and they "should be used to change gear", but they still serve a purpose and function as I'd hoped they would.

Thats actually pretty cool! A different and gimmicky approach. Better to make use of them than they do nothing.

Very cool indeed, easier than taking your hands off the wheel

Caraudiosecurity or something like that I think? Just do a search in Google, plenty of places sell them

[benbrown]

Now to choose the wheel....
