Default Wooden steering wheel...

Which one would you buy? THIS or THAT?

I hope one of you guys isn't selling either of these

Good luck...

Are you sure you want one?

I have driven a Mondeo with a wooden wheel and i can't say that i was at all pleased with it, too thin for my grasp and too slipery at times...

But if you know what your buying then i'd pay the extra 10 quid and get the one with the airbags for an easier "plug'n'play" installation.

thats a bit optimistic £600 you could get them from volvo for half that price new .
they are a nice smooth chunky feel , thicker than the standard wheel . Not quite in the mondeo range at £300 :-)

I have one of these for sale if anyone's interested.

Brand new in box, never fitted , no instructions, black leather & wood, triangle type airbag style.

It's for a car with Sat Nav as it has the hole for the switch on the hub part.

If you don't have Sat nav you probably wouldn't notice the hole as it's not easily visible from the driving position. Or I guess you could buy a switch to fill it.

All reasonable offers considered- PM them to me.
