Folks,
As said above I have a Simmonds Wheel
www.pbase.com/rsyme/image/118159394

This fitted straight on to the Motolita boss on my car so you can interchange the two at will

Cheers

One of the Simmonds images looks as though it could be of your car.

It does look like it. Even the speedo is infront of the wheel.

Yes indeed it is my car (Blush!!) I sent it to Steve when it was fitted to let him see how it looked, as I was so happy with it ---I am still really happy with it!!

Cheers!

FOOT LOCKER ..My wife is quite short so the foot locker stops her disappearing under the dash under hard breaking..!!!LOL happy3
The locker is handy for locking in the odd bits and bobs..I have lined it as everything rattles around inside..Seems good value and least offers some locked storage

Sounds good. I think I will order one for when we pick up the car. I have also decided to fit a Librands manifold and cat so it can go on the same order.

Regarding the Motolita steering wheel: after a certain amount of indecision I have ordered a walnut wheel with holed spokes. I get the standard wheel (in a box) as well for legal compliance reasons. If I have any problems with a control (equivalent of MOT) I will swap wheels. I have also asked the steering column shroud to be covered in the same leather as the seats. Morgan will do this on request for a small extra price.

Thanks to everyone for their input and suggestions.

I have this one on my 4/4 Sport. It matches the leather of the interior. Mines brown, but I have seen them in black.
I think it might be possible to get them trimmed to suit other colours.
It's a good sized wheel. Any larger and I wouldn't be able to get in the car ! The leather is comfortable to hold, warm to the touch and there is good grip to be had, with or without gloves.
I appreciate that the wood rimmed wheels look and feel very nice too, but I have to say that I am very happy with this wheel.


Holy thread resurrection oldgit

Fancy a brown leather steering wheel, something like above, above to go with interior of my car. Can anyone advise where I can get one please ?
