Many (like me) are changing out their original steering wheel for other Momo models. This is resulting in a number of original Noble wheels laying around without being used. You should be able to find one like this. If you can't track one down near you, let me know. When my M400 arrives in the states next week I will be immediately changing the steering wheel to another Momo model.

Might be tempted to sell mine, but a little concerned that some freak might prefer the original! Its also grown on me of late so not 100% sure I can be bothered changing.

Anyway yes it is a momo wheel and any momo supplier can get it for you. They do the plastic inserts in a variety of colours too. Its the wheel that triggered nitrous in the Fast&Furious so kids always ask if 'the buttons are Nos Mr?'

It is lighter and has less inertia than the heavier, less focused 3R wheel

Absolutely Nathan! Our cars definitely beat those lardy 3Rs!

Given its only 140 quid for the one I like dunno if its worth selling the old one unless its worth a reasonble amount?

Reminds me is the noble wheel 320 or 350, I can't remember (I know its in the archive!)

Thanks Rob.

Gadge why don't you pm me with what you'd be willing to pay for a 2nd hand one and I'll let you know whether I want to sell? No worries if you aren't interested - not sure I am either

The wheel looks quite a bit thinner? It also claims the prize for my new most hated wheel

Gadge, think your offer is fair but decided I can't be arsed changing the wheel. I'm sure someone else might be tempted though!
