Default Wooden Steering wheel for sale

I have a light coloured wooden steering wheel from a 1996 850 T5 - for sale on eBay

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285291419291

Hopefully I'm in the right ball park regarding the starting price of £120 for the auction.

Thats about right - I paid around this for my last wooden one which I fitted to my old V70R. You should find plenty of interest at that. GLWTS

Last one I saw on eBay was £400. I've not seen the lighter coloured one before, I have the dark one.

No idea why these fetch such strong money, they look horrendous! Pay £180 and get a standard wheel retrim!!!

I'd have to agree, they do nothing for me - but of course it's very much down to personal preference.

The attached image shows what I'd consider a more acceptable amount of 'wood'.
