UK wheel prices

5 posts by 4 people · 06 May 1999 - 17 May 1999

Anyone in the market for the Microsoft FF wheel should check out the current price on the Insight Uk web page.....86.34 INC VAT and free shipping......after months of looking and thinking nah...i finally gave in ordered it Tuesday...got it Thursday..... :) Most other companies still seem to have it priced at over 100. I've got nowt to do with Insight etc...just thought some of you might be interested. web page is www.insight.com and go to the UK section. faster lap times here i come......brrrrrrmmmmmm :)
Do you know if you can still use the 10 Cashback offer from Micrisoft on this (even though it is already a good price) ? John
> Anyone in the market for the Microsoft FF wheel should check out the > current price on the Insight Uk web page.....86.34 INC VAT That is staggering - my local PC world wants 150 for these. Is it worth it? Is this your first steering wheel? How many of the decent driving games benefit?

Not being a PC World visitor I missed the 10 cashback offer, now I'm informed Ill be popping down there to get the 10 refund voucher.Which makes this price even better. :) Yes its my first wheel, I chose the MS wheel as although the Act Labs has received rave reviews youve got all the hassle of shipping from US etc. As far i was concerned this price was too good to miss for a FF wheel. After a short evenings playing I can surely say playing a racing game with a wheel makes everything so natural, you can hold a line through a bend perfectly, rather than trying to hold the joystick in one position, you can control the acceleration and brake naturally. Any game which involves driving I'd say will benefit from being controlled with a wheel instead of a stick. If your a racing games player and been contemplating a wheel, I'd certainly reccomend getting one, whatever the flavour you prefer.

It's an offer direct from MS & you don't need a printed voucher. There's a form you can print on the MS site. Go to http://www.microsoft.com/UK/homepc/cashback/default.htm Purchases must be made by end of May, vouchers must be posted by end of June. Jon
