The only problem is can see with fitting that m'hearty is that you'd have to remove the front seat, and open the sun roof to get that proper sea salt standing at the helm position, spray in the face etc. ~titanic~

Maybe something a bit more everyday, practical and suitable for land lubbers.. ( any opportunity to worship the chain steering wheel) and the BX is a sort of Mexican lowrider, well a lowrider at least. I don't think we have any actual Mexican members though.

To save me a visit to the lock up, can someone measure the diameter of a standard valver steering wheel please. Decided to go for a moto lita wheel but unsure of what diameter to order. Cheers.

My Momo Corse wheel is 13.5 inches outside diameter, and I think this is perfect for the car.

Check it out on Sat at the ICCCR if I see you there.

What is this one and where can I get one?

Seriously, I don't much like the standard 3 spoke BX wheel but this one looks brilliant. Why didn't they use it instead?

My BX currently has a single spoke wheel (which I love) but it does seem to make my hands hurt after driving for hours on end (which thankfully I don't do very often)

That is the AX GT wheel. You just need to swap the indicator canceling arm off your BX wheel in place of the AX one. I have one here in AUS for sale, but I'm sure you'll be able to source one locally.
