Dear All
Have just spent the last half -hour trawling through the archives to see if anyone had collated a list of steering wheel types with respect to Make,Model,Year etc but No
Does anyone have a well informed list?
Diameters,Dish,Wood,Leather,Plastic,Holes,Slots Horn-pushes???
Please....
Thank you
John
Maybe I could start it off with Diameter Elans 14" , Plus2's 15".

[quote="rgh0"]Hi Tim
In the table you list the Plus 2 S130 as having the Chapman signature - my 73 car does not have a signature but all the other details are the same. But given its a Lotus maybe Colin forgot to sign my cars wheel
cheers

As we wrote in the article: "As we have often said before, with Lotus in the 60s and 70s nothing can be exactly pinned down and we know there are some exceptions to the rule. "

Seems Colin forgot to sign my 72 S130's wheel aswell. I'm fairly sure it was the original to the car, 15 inch, black, leather, 4 holes, no spats & 'ashtray' centre. It lives a life of leisure hanging on my garage wall now though, as I prefer something a little smaller
Thankfully, he did remember to sign the one in my Series 4
