Hi Tigger, it is 35cm diameter. I don't have an actual pic of it here (yet) but you can see it on this link. It is in perfect condition and is half leather, half suede

Is it comin with the adaptor? My car was off the road for more than a year, and the steering wheel falling apart... The outer layer coming off.
Do u have the gear knob as well?

Not sure if I still have the original gear knob, I'll check what's in the boot tomorrow. I had a "Voodoo knob" fitted since early on, but I'll keep that as a souvenir :-)

Yes, the steering wheel comes with the hub adaptor, a rubber cover and also the horn button. Everything you need really

Need a few interior bits:
- ashtray
- blanking plates for dash - visible when doors opened
- plastic door stop (passenger side)
- plate that hides the wires under steering wheel (?name - sits under steering cowl)

Also needed:
- front wheel arch liners and mounting screws/clips

Hi Stuart, I will have a go at pulling those over the next couple of days. The interior bits are all there for sure. I am away next week, so if Friday doesn't work out, it'll have to be after 14-Sep

Alright lads, car is going to Robert (Autocheck) apart from the items which some of you expressed interest in (Stuart - ashtray, blanking plates for dash, plastic door stop, dash knee panel; Tigger - steering wheel and boss; Steve - roof; Steve's mate - seats)

Couple of interesting items on the car that you can ask Robert about: there is an ACT Flyin' Miata turbo clutch fitted; 5-speed gearbox and rear open diff are all good; front wings are good; engine is good but was disassembled; lamps, motors, etc all good; UK rear panel, front crystal indicators. The car has adjustable KYB AGX shocks with 30,000 miles on them plus Koni springs - nice low ride, but not harsh at all; A-arms are all polybushed Powerflex) - Steve's name is on the suspension bits.

I still have the Rota wheels & new tyres (Avon ZZ3 215x40xZR16) if anyone is interested
