I paid $11k for mine... and it came with a boss and radio and 4 wheels, and a motor.

Good wheel, except that my clublock won't fit it as it's too small.

I can't believe they want $600 for these. :roll:

Still it makes me more happy about what I paid for mine. :wink:

haha gold plated :P Looks like only I got that one :wink:

Yeah it is an AWESOME wheel. Your clublock doesn't fit cause it ain't a clublock original like mine! :P

It's not 12 inches, it's more like 16 inches. It's a good wheel for a mini, much more accurate and easier to park than a small wheel. The leather feels awesome too 8)

Is the $375 premium over this one because the other one is a "Cooper"?

My farken god :roll:

That is the advertised price.
It is what they sell for.
Yes they sell at this price.
Not everyone is a tight ass mini owner.
Which is why these sell.
Go out and buy your $100 autotechnica special, and have to replace it in a few years cos the build quality is SH!THOUSE.
Or buy this and have it last you ages.

You try source the same item for cheaper, go on bastards i dare you.

This pisses me off so much and im finally letting it all out :lol:

You're so used to buying cheap ass crap for your mini that you see $600 for a steering wheel as signing your life away.
If you want it, you'll buy it, simple as that.

Whinging and carrying on isnt going to change the price.

(not picking on anyone in particular, picking on EVERYONE) :twisted: :lol:

willy I was not saying that is an expensive price. All i said was that i got a bargain and I did. Moto-lita wheels are the beez neez and worth every cent. I was just surprised that they were worth that much as I thought hey were around the $300 mark. SO NO NEED FOR AN ESSAY okthanksbyebye

speedy that's a different wheel. The real John cooper version is the one with 2 holes on each spoke... There are also different dishes, some are deeper than others. These wheels apeared on early model Bentlys and Aston Martins so must be good!
