Or, just buy the entire car and get the grey stained maple wood pack for free Roll Eyes Wink
 

 
Nice, but not worth that sort of money, that chap is really getting stupid now Sad

That's a total piss take of a price.... Huh
 
....You'd have be some kind of super nutty Scorp enthusiast to pay that kind of cash  Roll Eyes
 
....If it were a classic Bentley steering wheel....then maybe you might want to stretch to that kind of price....but a Scorp ?  Huh
 
....& the postage  Shocked
 
I bought a three spoked, original steering wheel for a MK1 Granada/Consul GT for £20 off Ebay last year, with £8.00 postage, & I think that they are a little rarer than what Mr Saville is selling  Roll Eyes
 
I bought an alternator from him a couple of months back, & on meeting him, he seemed like a genuinely nice, down to earth bloke, trying to make an honest living from flogging second hand Scorp parts. So I can't see why he thinks he can get that sort of price  Undecided
 
Oh well...each to their own  Wink
 
P.S....Bruce, that Jag interior looks lovely. If the exterior & the mechanics are as good, then I think you've got a stunning car for the price  Wink

I see he's also selling rear bumpers for £165  Huh
 
I've just found a small Ford breakers, not a mile from were I live, who has a few & is selling them for £50 each.
 
Also, Mr Saville is selling a set of front & back Recaro seats with the same steering wheel for £350......
 
I think maybe the steering wheel advert is a mistake...& it is £350 for the Recaro seats & steering wheel. That would make more sense  Wink

Ah...gotta love ebay Smiley
 
Theres another well know seller of "cosworth" items based in the channel Islands who does regular trips to the ebay section of the FSOC forum for people to laugh at his creative pricing structure.
 
One member once wrote to him suggesting that £45 was a little high for a "cosworth" lighting column switch   (eg: identical to every other model in the sierra range) and the reply he got probably contained the most expletives and personal insults ive ever seen crammed into a single sentance.
 
Im sure these as the same people who attend Ford Fair in the parts area and want £95 for an ashtray....  Roll Eyes

There was a two section one available for the scorpio at one time but in extremely small numbers by all accounts. I did have the pic somewhere

With prices like that, I wonder what the guy is on!!
 
Where in God's name do these idiot Ebayers dream up these ridiculous 'postage' prices.
 
We can all go onto the Royal Mail/Courier websites these days, and see what it costs.
 
Who's kidding who?
 
Personally I wouldn't buy from him on principle.  Wink
 
Bruce, the interior of your car is stunning............I want one!!  Grin
