Thank you.....

Today Alan got a new steering wheel.. well not new really, a 1990's Momo and a QR Optimill boss which, as others have said is beautifully made.

I saw a very similar steering wheel on an mg metro cup car a few years ago, looks like it might have been on the car when it was used as a road car. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

fastest I have been in mine is 80 and that was it, getting to that speed took some doing Laughing the thing was I was Censored off an Audi A6, I was in his lane so he didn't like it, i made him work to under take, i still had the run.
he wasn't happy mind Laughing i tell you what my arse cheeks were very tight mind, i wasn't sure how things were going to go with a defender at 80 mph! Shocked Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
