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

I have the MFSW version of this steering wheel. Mine is definately leather and that one looks the same to me. :-)

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.
