Bender Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Got that steering wheel in quite good condition i belive been retrimed in the past. What is worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 It has been retrimmed for sure, its quite a bit thicker than the stock wheel. I refurbished a unloved leather wheel last year and you can see for the picture that there is quite a big difference. You see the 3 spoke wheels of the composite variety be offered for around £300 these days and the leather ones for up to £1k. The composite ones are still available new, the leather ones are discontinued. New, the horn boss cost almost as much as a new composite wheel, several hundred £. Your wheel is a really hard one to put a value on seeing its a long way off stock with the added embroidered horn boss feature to. I'd hope that someone with a racing wheel would look at this as an upgrade if they are looking to revert to stock but it'd need to be quite a bit cheaper than a good stock wheel otherwise why wouldn't a buyer just go for a good stock wheel? If it were my wheel I'd punt it for £300 and see if there is any interest over as long as I could wait, just leave it sat on auto ad renewal on eBay and chances are a buyer will happen by sometime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is a bit thicker. Thanks for advice now I at least got a idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
