How many miles do you have to do for the steering wheel to be no good.

I use gloves (the same as on the movie "Drive") when I drive my CSL.

It is clean, top and bottom and mechanically 100% perfect. Any doubts talk to The Master Tech Paul Travers at Specialist Cars Stevenage. Thank you for your interest.

My steering wheel never deteriorated to the point where it wasn't usable though...

It remains useable but just does not look/feel good and my connection with the car is via the steering wheel and so try get the one that suits me the best.

422 CSLs were sold in the UK, I bet they replaced more steering wheels than that.

Alcantara steering wheels on Porsche are far better.

How did the journalists find the other cars in the M range?..or did they all just agree that the CSL was the best.

My point was that it was very clean i.e. no dirt, but you could see the bars had been painted as the colours looked different to the rest of the car and why wouldn't you run the original wheel on it if you weren't dailying it, or at least for the article. Plus the purist in my didn't like the APs for a "look back" video.

Bars?

Offered to put the original wheel on the car ( it was on site and a man ready to swap) but they wanted to leave as is - their story. Takes nothing away from the message.

Is your CSL modded at all?
