It's a DAMD steering wheel.
To respond to the 3 PM's I've already had regarding selling the steering wheel, I'm afraid I already have a whole host of people interested but I will be offering to the buyer of the vehicle as an option if they want it; if they don't the original wheel will go back on and I'll put it up for a suitable sum.
Also have a Prodrive diff guard which I haven't fitted but buyer will get first refusal as ideally I'd like the car to stay together as is

Stunning example and surprised you are selling her Giles - fancy a change?
Thanks mate.
Just had our first baby and looking at something with more boot space and a bit more comfort; I have a suspicion I'll be back at some stage

Congratulations buddy and GLWTS - you will be back....I did exactly the same....3 babies later lol!!
if so be a very bad move to swap in when babys born. mate did that and baby just wouldn't settle. Had got used to the burble in mums tum
No she refused to ride in it when preggers as it jiggled too many of her bodily parts
TBH she just didn't like anything except her Peugeot she moaned about my Fiesta ST as well.
Unfortunately my confidence in the car's engine has suffered a blow today, and whilst carrying out a compression test at a main dealer this morning for a potential buyer, checks confirmed no oil leaks or other issues with the fluid levels, but car was found to be low on compression on cylinder 2, hence I am immediately withdrawing it from sale whilst I consider selling the car as is or going for a forged build.
Bad news for both seller and buyer, I am genuinely gutted.
Update 20/11/2015
It appears the dealer test carried out X may have been at fault.
After speaking to several people it became clear that with a figure of 80psi on cylinder 2 the car would be knocking its **** off or misfiring or not performing - none of which were the case.
Subsequently a separate check was carried out the following day at a specialist which showed cylinder 2 to be within expected tolerances (over 50psi higher than the reading registered at the dealer)
The dealership are understandably concerned, have ordered a new calibrated tester and will be conducting a re-test on Tuesday.
I'll keep everyone posted but my suspicion is the car will get a clean bill of health...

That's a shame! Just out of curiosity does it still drive and 'pull' ok or can you feel a difference in performance?
Still feels like it goes sh*t off a shovel tbh mate, 2 potential buyers drove it and were impressed, but evidently it's on it's way now. Not noticeable to me yet, but haven't dyno'd it
