Does this look like a leather steering wheel??

Right, basically someone has said to me that that isnt a leather steering wheel because it hasnt got thumb rests, but if you look you can clearly see stitching

Ive a tenner riding on this btw



another tenner says King will say it isnt

That's leather. The plastic one is very plasticky indeed, and does not feature any stitching at all. Enjoy your tenner!

The Sport Steering Wheel with perforated leather wrap and thumb grips wasn't introduced until 2002-12 production.
