So you mean the ladies appreciate an extra inch for a larger steering wheel to get a better parking, when place is tight? I do hope you aren't suggesting that Budster and I are ladies

TBH I also favour one more extra inch, especially regarding the 3 turns ratio of the P4SS steering. The only downside is that the space inside feels significantly cramped when travelling with a tall co-pilot.

I have a 16 inch motalita woodrim in my Plus Four and whilst a smaller wheel would aid ingress and egress I think a smaller wheel would make low speed manoeuvrability more difficult.

I've just gained an extra inch as well as Mr B! My 15" Derrington wheel arrived today; rather a nice surprise as I was expecting several weeks delay from MotoLita. Its fitted and feels and IMHO looks nice.....just the right proportions. A shame as just after I fitted it, what was a pleasant day suddenly turned for the worse with a hail storm and then heavy rain so my planned drive out to try the wheel out failed  Mike....thanks for the suggestion of a Derrington style wheel...it works. A shame that I couldn't order one from you as the wood would be a lot nicer but once I've spent on other aspects of the car I will be putting an order in!

Lovely cockpit Have you ever been tempted to swap the speedo and the multi-gauge so you can see the speedo with the tonneau on, or do you just get to know the road speed from the in-gear revs?

Its one of those jobs on my list...swapping the gauges around. At the moment I tend to use the rev counter for crucial speeds like 30, 40 and 50 although I have bought a small gps speedo to fit unobtrusively. When I do swop the gauges around I will probably fit different switches and centre panel courtesy of M-K.
