Logitech Driving Force PS3 Wireless Steering Wheel €28.93 delivered (maybe slightly cheaper if you pay the sterling price)

I don't know how good it is. I've ordered one and will give feedback. I've been on the lookout for a steering wheel and this seems like a good price. Amazon has it for £52.99 (not incl. Irish VAT etc.)

Do you have a link to the G25 on pixmania, coz I can't find it.

Only the one the OP listed is showing up (€39 plus delivery).

For €30ish delivered I think I will chance ordering from zavvi and see hoe it goes

EDIT: Just got a confirmation email from zavvi, so fingers crossed. That wireless wheel is €99 on the Logitech website.

Off to pixmania

Only £24.89 on sendit.com but they have it listed as UK ONLY as well.

EDIT: Scratch that. Just found out this has no pedals. R2/L2 buttons are on the face of one of the wheel stems.

Your address must have slipped the net. Fair play.

I tried zavvi, thehut and sendit, using various Dublin addresses. All cancelled stating "UK only".

In any case I cannot imagine trying to use buttons on the face of the wheel for accelerator and brake functions.

I haven't received mine yet. Have you had a chance to use it? If so, is it any good?

I didn't want to spend €100 on a wheel, I've thought about getting a wheel in the past but couldn't justify that sort of money. Overall, I'm happy to have spent €30 on it.

Mini review:
It seems good, it worked straight out of the box on Racedriver Grid but being honest I can't really compare it with any other wheel. The fact that it sits on your lap is fine and the paddles working as peddles is also very natural. One minor annoyance is the fact that although it wirelessly connects with the PS3 it still needs to be plugged in. I knew this when ordering but it is still kinda annoying.

Ordered one of these yesterday and got a dispatched email today. So theres still a chance of Irish delivery if your lucky. I did order with something eligible for Irish delivery but its only the wheel that has been dispatched thus far.

Ordered this last week and arrived yesterday. It must just be complete luck whether your address slips by them or not.

The wheel itself is well worth the money I reckon. Played a good bit of Gran Turismo Prologue last night with it and have no complaints about the performance. Was initially sceptical about having no foot pedals but the analogue flippers behind the wheel do a great job for accelerating and breaking. Can't wait for GT5 to come out now!
