Steering Wheel Repair/Replace
My 75 connoisseur’s wheel is very very worn around the circumference and I’m not sure if I should repair or replace it. Current interior is the creamy colour, but if I was to replace I’d want a black wheel. Has anyone swapped before and think this would look good?
What would a price be for one in good condition (no marks or anything along them lines)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
If you went for the standard black leather wheel which you mainly get in the ZT's you should be able to get one for 40/50 quid or so- usually on e bay . Asking prices rise for wood wheels - Walnut and Light Oak etc - there is also a dark oak trim - 75.00 upwards to over 120.00.;).

Saying that have noticed the plain black wheels are starting increase in asking price.:shrug:

After having light oak, walnut, leather ZT wheel, I eventually settled for the black leather one from the contemporary model. Slightly larger than the ZT wheel.

I probably will go for the ZT wheel! It’ll stand out as well and hopefully go nice with the light coloured interior

There is a company near Ayelsbury who recovered a wheel for me last year, £120 and it was back in about a week.
If you want the details I will see if I can find it for you. |

Thanks but I’m in Nottingham and probably would go to someone a bit closer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
I did the same swap early this year to black. I have the wood wheel still which I have not got round to selling as I am not sure of the legality of putting an airbag in the post.
Not far from you either if you possibly want to swap to another wood one. Off a lowish mileage 05 plate and in great nick. https://i.postimg.cc/9FBVfTrM/IMG-20191224-122708.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/59LbZDJ8/IMG-20191224-122834.jpg |

Thanks for the message. That wheel is in lovely condition! If I had a different coloured interior I’d definitely be interested but I don’t think it’ll work with the colour scheme. When you did swap it, how did you put airbags in/transfer them etc? I’m thinking about getting a black ZT one, and putting a Rover badge on it, but I’m guessing it’s no easy job.
