IMO, this is how a C5 RS6 Steering wheel should be like.
Now I've posted, I will just sit back and wait for the comments.

The wood wheel is one thing, but the anal beads dangling from the mirror are quite genuinely special...

Wooden wheel in an RS6 just don't make sense to me.....? Seats look lovely though, just like mine. :)

In the family we have 3 RS6's. 2 saloon and 1 estate. Mine is the only one with the half wood, half leather wheel with tiptronic buttons. The wheel is so smooth to the touch and easy to clean. Paddle shifts are naff. With the buttons you can change up/down from either side. I will try to get a better pic up If I can find one. Right, I'm off to get the wood polish out and polish my stick. Sorry, I meant wheel. :piss: :piss:

I'm glad you aren't - if you were, the sign-writing might be missing the odd letter and punctuation!!

Hoofing, I have been looking for a firm that does this for a long time. That's a reasonable price as well.

Why would you want to change up/down from either side? Unless you're Richard "Rick" Allen from Def Leppard then I don't see the point. I have both hands on the wheel, I change gear with either a twitch of my left hand or a twitch of my right hand, I retain perfect grip on the wheel without moving my thumbs. In fact, it's such an elegant solution, the GP F1 boffins let their racing drivers use it, furthermore, I cannot think of another late-model performance car that employs these gearchange buttons on both sides of the steering wheel. C'mon lads, if you aim low, you'll not be shooting stars...

But what happens if your left hand is on the gear lever, how do you change gear then bam? Oh wait, you still can. As you say, these button type poos must be for Rick, bet he wish he didn't have his seatbelt on that day. Bloody good drummer he is.

What I meant was that at least you can change from either side, unlike paddle shifts which are handed or sided, if there is such a word.
