Steering wheel what is worth?

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.
