How much is a ph1 wheel worth?

[AlexG]

I'm puzzled because it's in mint condition. Doesn't look like a retrim.
Just searched the forum. Apparantly a new one is £328.
Retrimmed ones are £130.

How much is mine worth. Pics coming soon.

wow! First one I have ever seen that looks like that. £40

That looks a retrim to me, as the origionals were more black in colour, that looks like real leather.

 

[AlexG]

Its the flash in the dark. Makes it look really blue.

I'd agree. Even more so since I found out the other day that they were originally covered in Alcantara, apart from the small blue leather patch at the bottom spoke.

i would have to agree. the stitching looks far to new and clean unless this car has done a few thousand miles from new.

also looks the wrong stitching pattern and does look like leather not alcantara

does anyone know what colour the centre console is in the last picture?

 

[jaysjetski]

just had a quick look around. the stitching on your is totally wrong. so it had a retrim.(still looks good for a ph1 wheel)

you car is an import as well i believe as the alarm light is on the steering column

 

[AlexG]

I've seen pictures of retrimmed wheels and they looked quite bad compared to mine. That's why I thought it was standard.

Alarm is aftermarket, not an import.

How much do we think it's worth then I'm struggling to pinpoint a price.

Looks very like a RSi wheel rather than a retrim imo

 

[Hutchie]

or the v6 one, like -Karl- his looks mint like that

 

[chrismason]

Got to be at least £80-90, considering to retrim one is around £130.

 

[Djw John]

A retrim one is £100, why would you want to keep your old wheel?!

 

[Daniel]

That steering wheel is either out of an Exclusive 172 or a 1.6 16v RSI.

 

[Nick_P]

Any pics of a brand new ph1 wheel, out of curiosity...

 

[Rob]

I'd like to see that also....

 

[Djw John]

Best I could find on my comp,

 

[Nick_P]

Looks great in that top pic, the seats look "tight" mine are all saggy now they are getting on a bit

 

[james57]

Atleast £80 IMO

Here's the wheel as new for reference:

That retrimmed wheel looks very good. Could do with one for my Ph1 172. I would say the wheel in photos is out of a Phase1 172.

Where can I get a retrimmed wheel from? Are they part-exchange?
