After a steering wheel for my BMW E28 5 series (alpine white with M535i kit on to set the scene), either OE or aftermarket but has to be either period or evoke the period (mk1 MX5 MOMO with horn pad for example would be considered)
Anyone got anything that they could put forward for a decent price?

Two different types of steering wheel on the E28.
Coarse spline for the earlier pre 86 cars and the more common fine spline on later cars.
Do you know which fitting you have?

From 09/85 for the 86 model year I think.

Funnily enough I was looking at your thread and thinking how perfect one of my Italvolanti's would be for you car. Particularly this one;

If it's fine spline I have an mtech 1 wheel that would suit. Or an ac schnitzer one but that's a few quid.
