I own this VDM steering wheel!
I bought it in Holland 15 years ago for only 50€uro! (2000 Belgian Francs)
Last year I saw at Volksworldshow the same used VDM steering wheel for sale but the center was diffrent as mine so I'm sure there are 2 models!
That one who was for sale had no colour anymore on the horpushbutton.
I could have it for 1000€
A shame that I didn't took a picture of it.
This is a great steering wheel to drive and unbelievable comfortable!
I will bring my car to Bad Camberg next june but maybe next year will the steeringwheel change from car.......

I just noticed something, these steering wheels don't have the turn signal self canceling tab like stock ones? Is this right?

Just installed the VDM repro on the bus:
Most of the bus folks opted for the banjo repro, I prefered go with that one.
Its color fit with the color of the bus.
|
Just wondering if anyone knows who is selling these reproduction steering wheels now? cip1.ca and .com do not list it online anymore. I did n to think that a reproduction could become rare, but these seem to be going that way.
Gordo.
