Andy,

I managed to find a wide, original (slim-rimmed) Brooklands steering wheel and had it fitted in my 1989 4/4.
Ingress is not as easy as with a "standard" motolita wheel as a result, but it looks fantastic in the car & it does improve handling tenfold!
I find deflectors useful, as they do hold the door open if fitted with side-screens and as they prevent the wind coming straight into your face. They rather deflect it towards your neck, which is not as annoying if you wear an neck-scarf or a jacket with your collar turned up.
I often drive on the autoroute to France with my hood up and my side-screens down if the sun is too strong. The strain is not that bad on the windscreen (it does wobble though) when I go at 130 - 140 kph, but the noise is so strong that I have to wear earplugs.
