Does anyone know where I can get an MS FF wheel in the UK? I've looked
in a few shops casually recently and can't ever recall seeing one. I
want to get one soon before my Thrustmaster just gives up and dies :-)

Well Dixons sell them - there must be one of them near you.

I got mine in PC World but I have seen them in Electronics Boutique,
Dixons, Currys and HMV.

Graeme,

if you're still pontificating, SMC have just dropped their price by a
tenner - 99quid +VAT (although the web site still has the old price).

eligible for MS's tenner cashback until 31st May too. They do free
delivery: www.smcdirect.co.uk . Effective price 106quid inc VAT,
delivery & cashback.

I picked one up from them on Thursday - it's fabulous. Works well with
everything I've got (GP2, TOCA, TOCA2, Viper, F1RS) and the "virtual
spring" makes it self centring in non FF games too. Only problem was
having to unplug my MIDI splitter cos it needs to use the MIDI lines
for controlling the FF hardware - and unplugging all the TM flight
gear.

Oh, and it's full versions of CART & Monster Truck Madness 2 in the
box (box says "special edition" - I think that just means no manual).
MTM2 is miles away from sim but hilariously good fun for an hour or
two.
