FF wheel in Germany?

by fcond.. » Fri, 04 Aug 2000 04:00:00

Guys, I'd appreciate an advice on FF wheels in Germany. I hear a lot of
rave reviews on the Act-Labs and they actually ship one from Holland
for, well, over 250$ US which translates to about 520DM. I can get the
MS FF wheel for 259DM, the Logitech Formula Force for 299DM and the
Guillemot Ferrari FF wheel for 249DM. I am leaning towards the MS wheel
as I am not prepared to shell out over 250$. Any comments, ideas,
suggestions?

Oh and I drive Brit Rally Championship, GPL, GP3 and the odd Nascar3.

Hi Flurin,
i had the same 'problem' as you, and i decided to buy the MS FF wheel.
I have no preference if it's the one with USB or without, the second one
is a little bit cheaper, but more difficult to find.
Normally you only get the newer one with USB. But http://www.joysoft.de
has the 'old' one, too, you get it for 209DM.

Isn't that fun? The MS and Act-Labs wheels cost roughly the same in
the US, while the Act-Labs comes in at about 400DM in Germany as
compared to 250DM for the MS. I wonder how many wheels Act-Labs has
sold in Europe. I certainly wouldn't want to be the vice president for
international sales there.
