Anybody want my ACS steering wheel - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Hi

Anybody fancy my AC Schnitzer steering wheel? Fits straight on, genuine AC Schnitzer leather wheel, I think it's 360mm (that's my best guess with a tape measure).

It's in good nick, bit worn on the right hand side but should be OK with some leather treatment.

Not sure how much to ask - PM me for an offer!

It's on ebay at the mo with a few days left to run. Quick! Someone give me £1000 for it before the auction ends

cheers, Luke

It looks nice Luke but that retrimmed one by B-Trim looks perfect for the car IMHO - good choice!

Hi Luke ,

I recently saw a Schnitzer steering wheel like yours go for over £150 on the bay of e ......how's yours doing ?

I can't believe I let you have one of my best MTec wheels cheap , only for you to go and cover it in girly suede !

Say hello to Nigel and Jags for me next time you pop into Bexley Motor Works , they are great boys !

Hi luke does that mean you are selling your car then, if so thats a shame considering you just bought (have a copy of the BMW issue when u first purchased) it not that many moons ago spent loads on it only for you to now want to sell, i hope i am wrong in assuming thats the case that "u want to sell" as i believe they will be more desirable with time. Regards Y

No, not selling the car just yet. I'm waiting for next year when all E34 M5s will be worth £15,000. It's going to happen.

Although as I have now switched magazines (I'm now in the hot seat on Performance Ford mag) there has been talk of swapping the M5 for a 3DR Cossie. What do ya reckon?!

Thanks for the wheel again, Davidoli - I'll be up at Bexley's soon to get a wheel bearing replaced so I'll say hi for you.

Haaaa! traitor i don't want to talk to you anymore.

why do you have to go and do such a thing{just kiddin}. You were one of the underlying influence in my own e34 m5 purchase. But really on a serious note good luck on your decision.

Don't worry, the M5's not going anywhere for a little while yet.

I do really want one of these though. They're officially cool again. I think it would make a nice addition to the old white car collection that I've got going on at the moment.

Luke, Performance Ford....more like Pimp my Ride!!! Cheap metal with owners spending more 'borrowed' cash on big turbo's, carbon trim, underbody lights and nasty accessories....I just don't see you in a whale tail Sierra Cosworth with a huge exhaust and nasty wheels. Seb on the other hand...maybe!!

GreatWhite · 24th February 2009, 18:28

They're not that cheap! Have you seen the price of clean Cosworths - it's a shame our beloved M5s don't fetch that money...

Also, I'm not sure that tacky bodykits and neons are purely the preserve of Fords. Quite a few Bimmers wiv some sweet looking rims and Lambo doors doing the rounds innit. But not in my neck of the woods I hasten to add, mostly where Seb lives.

Anyway, stop making me defend Fords damn you. I don't even own one (yet) and the M5 is not going anywhere so leave me alone.

And can someone buy my Schnitzer steering wheel please? It's really good and I promise it will add value to your car. I'll even sign it and I'm almost as famous as Clarkson.
