Steering wheel need recovering?

[pereirac]

It back... My steering wheel came back today and Lotus have done an excellent job recovering it. It's not the width of an Elite wheel either - I had forgotten how narrow it was (compared to the wooden Mountney wheel I have been using this year). If anybody would like photos of before and after please email me. The wheel is covered in a semi matt fine grained leather looks exactly in keeping with the rest of the car.

Andy at Bell & Colville (tel +44(0)1483 286452) has come back to me and said that may be able to arrange a discount if a few people get together to have their steering wheels covered

Yes, but could you post them in the gallery for all to see?

I have just posted the before and after photos on the gallery (which I never realised existed )

And now mine is back, I'm very impressed.
The same quality seams and leather as on a very expensive Moto-Lita I had....

For gods sake send them in before they realise their prices are ridiculously low...

Bell & Colvill did say they would consider a discount for 'bulk'. So if you 'all' want your steering wheels covered, send them in together and ask for a discount

Not way would I risk that. Apart from the head and block they are the most valuable single bit on the car. Chances are something would happen in the trim shop and all of them would go missing....they would then trickle back onto Ebay at 1000 quid a piece for the next few years!
