Yes, the motolita is not an issue if you are willing to get rid of the airbag unit.
There are lot of solutions for that but I'd like to keep it.

Keeping the airbag is a valid argument.
But then, I drive a classic Morgan...

And you do not have to deal with the Swiss "TUV" laugh

Looking at the German Tax rates I should consider mooving to switzerland. But can't you register in Germany? Worth it?

I love my swiss plate. I need to check in details what would change in my insurance (if possible from TUV) if I move from an "airbag" car to an "old school" one.

My GTN has a plain round "solid" version ... time will tell if that isn't to slippery in warm weather ...have my doubts.
Think the one with leather trim is better.... ??

For those interested in the Z8 wheel:
I found a comment in a forum saying that:
"the Z8 steering wheel and airbag is a direct fit for the 2002 Z3. so, i guess as long as you have a 2001-2002 Z3 with dual stage airbag, the slipring, airbag, and wheel is just a simple swap."
That means,you could go to any srap yard or BMW-Dealer to test if the BMW Z3 wheel fits and if so, order the Z8 wheel.
