      Gave the steering wheel and handbrake a damned good clean today, to see how it might come up rather than simply sending it away to be re-trimmed.

      Came out brilliantly to be honest. Will give it another going over, but will be fine for another 12 months minimum.

      :smokin:

      As to trackdays, I'm booked on at Rocky on 7th March with CD, and am likely to book with them also for a Ring TD end of April.

      Have a new set of Cups (from Tyreleader) to go on probably after the Rocky day, as that's quite a harsh circuit for tyre wear - so a nice fresh set for the Ring then! :supz:

        I've been thinking about cleaning instead of replacing myself. Dumb question but, how did you go about cleaning it?

          Simple really. Alcantara usually just takes dirt from your hands and retains it.

          I used a cleaning towel with a little warm water and washing up liquid. Wrung it out do was just damp and ensured the soap had worked through but didn't use too much.
          I then gripped the wheel with the damp cloth and applied some gentle pressure on the wheel using the towel in a wrist-twisting motion!
          Did this in sections. Took about 10-15 Mins to do the whole wheel and a few extra mins to for the handbrake lever.

          The towel was filthy afterwards...

            What tiles did you use for the garage floor? I'm looking at sorting out my new garage walls/flooring soon.

                  There's been some depression of the tiles beneath the wheels, as you might expect...

                        Mileage is at 72,308 - what would be a sensible price?
                        Needs a service though.
