Thanks Mike... although, in fairness, you could be a bit biased! :-)

Car looked stunning at SRR last weekend Nick! Sorry about making you spend more money on the steering wheel :assflash:

Looks in fantastic condition that one, as-new. Far better than mine! Nice one.

For road cars steering wheels should be round, end of.

Yep, 20 minute job. Makes a stark difference when compared with the stock S4 wheel. I should clarify though that RS5s are automatic only so all of the RS5 steering wheels will have paddles fitted.

Sorry, but round steering wheels look just rubbish once you've got used to the flat bottom wheels.

The flat bottom ones make the Audi interior stand out from the dull interiors like BMWs.

Standard S4 one - similar to the RS5 one, but thinner and with smooth leather, not perforated.

I'd agree that flat bottom ones *look* nice, but for the day-to-day practicalities of driving & parking, a round one works better for me.
