No chance mate!  :D

And if they had, I'd be offering you about a grand for your steering wheel.
Mind you, I might just upgrade from the Scorpio if that were the case  :-/

Upgrade?..... I thought you could only 'side-grade' to pay more money for less kit but you got a badge that set you up with the tatu'ed f**kits in sales as 'the man'

I'd rather have some real wood on the dash fittings  than on the steering  wheel, what a loopy  idea. :o

The  Ford designer responsible for the  Wooden Steering Wheel   is hopefully  now  working  on   supermarket  trolleys  :-* ( collecting them that is )

What did he use to colour it so well ?

Just wondered if I could add white patches to a black interior to give it that cowskin look..

well heres the reply i got

Hi Craig
So you approve  of me changing the colours's then.
I used a beige and mid brown leather dye and keep adding them together till I got the right mix.
And for the wood section I used a wood stain and just kept adding a coat till I got a colour near to the wooden dash.
Not exactly the same but pretty close.
How is you hunt for a new car going,  hope you find what you are looking 4.
Best Regards to all.
