A bit like this steering wheel, it had turned very green, its a common thing with the dark oak wheel.

I fitted a new dark oak wheel, much better..

Thats it shame they go like that. Nothing you can do.

I think that owners of Black Oak steering wheels would have to permantly park in the shade in order prevent the "fading".

The cost of a new wheel was a reasonable £99 from Les at SMC.

would it be worth coating them with a layer of uv reflective but clear laquer?

mine has gone green too, but every one said they like it, as it matches the out side of the car,

It's a necessity for Monogram paint owners, you just cannot risk getting a scrape.

Not been fined for this habit yet but if I did, it's still better than suffering paint/panel damage from some Nerd who can't drive properly.

Yes just like I do!!

I think you will find I park in the best way for a V8

Today at Pets R Us or something.

Do you know I parked just like that a few weeks back in one of those godamn awful chain store carparks; mine was the only car there .......................

Guess wot ?

I kid you not but some numpty in a Vauxhall Safira parked 10 inches away from mine.

I had to get in through my passenger door.
I wish I had taken a pic & left a note on her windscreen, saying something like
" Next time, can you leave me your name & address so I can come & block you in"
That day beggared belief.
