Well, there is a WHM one on ebay at the moment for the "bargain price" of £80.

(That comes WITHOUT the rest of the car!
)
Now, I didn't realise some folk were THAT keen to have an original s1 wheel in their later car though
for a more modest £ I have a selection in good order (with/without) radio controls which could help
the fix my dead TCT engined Activa fund!
Should the need take you, I also have s1.5 and s2 ones too! What's it worth to you for that certain look!?
Put another way, what have folk bought these for as I don't want to sell items on and regret it!?

Or maybe a no spoke steering wheel! (Well technically it has two)

Hmmmmm. Now I wonder if...
I'm sure this could be made to fit onto the Xm 4x column mountings?
Could chuck something more interesting than an airbag in the centre there too!
Quite like the hologram blue badge mind.

£80 is a bit steep yes, if you have a leather one with a red badge and no stereo controls i would be interested though

Wolesely house had a '90/91 V6 Si for sale a couple of months ago in the Citroenian, I hope this steering wheel didn't come from it. They were looking £600 for it.
That C4 steering wheel setup is quite effective, I drove a 3 Series/C5 a few weeks ago with one in it, thought it would be odd, but thankfully not.

Crumbs. Are v6 steering wheels worth £600 then!?
Sorry Dean, if I've got one I may need to buy a safe big enough
to keep it in safe keeping!!

I wouldn't put it past them either!!!
£100 for a nose cone... Where is the rest of the XM?

I like the fixed centre steering wheel, very nice design in my opinion. I too thought it would be odd to use, but it was great on the C4 i drove.
Wow, its not even leather for that price! Crazy.

May very well do, not sure about the colour of the badge on any of them mind
- never registered on my radar! When I'm driving so varied different era Citroens,
these subtleties tend to blur somewhat; wasn't it a red badge in a s2 Cx etc...

I dont know if im honest, as a small boy i always thpught the Citroen badge on the steering wheel was red untill my grandad got a BX van which had a black one, now almost all i see are black, i wonder what the difference is or if there was just a big bin of badges and it was pot luck as to which you got????
