That's cool, how much did the steering wheel cost?

It was £180 including delivery I think. About that anyway maybe £10 more.

It’s about ballpark for what I’ve had done before using a company in Poland for one wheel (Mini Cooper S), and another Saab owner for my Saab 9-3 Convertible.

I can strongly recommend Royal as they’ve been really helpful and understanding. The workmanship is top drawer too, better than the Mini wheel, and as good as the Saab wheel, but about £50 cheaper.

I prefer Alcantara as it is more tactile for me, and regular cleaning and brushing keeps it in good nick. Despite the look on the photo, it is still OEM thickness and is perfect for my needs.
