Anyone? Just quickly throw a measuring tape across the steering wheel? I'm looking to get a disk lock (along with top of the range alarm) and there are difference sizes that they cope with. Hopefully collecting the car early this week and want to have it in place asap as a visual deterent.

Thanks for your time on this... fantastic forum. Been digging back through tonnes of posts and there is a wealth of knowledge on here

Thought i'd quickly check that measurement for you, it's 14.75" in diameter, that's edge to edge

Yep, I agree with that (outer diameter) - 14.75" (or 37.5cm)

German and swedehead do a steering lock that is shaped like a baseball bat. I find it a good visual deterent, and can easily be used as a baseball bat! ... if you know what i mean.

LOL... picked up a good disklock there yesterday. Murphys law though, delay with the car... duplicate V5 needs to be issued (or the current one found) before anything goes ahead. aaarrrggghhhh
