Strange as it may seem, the only thing I really dislike about my car is the flat bottomed steering wheel. Is there any sensible way to change this while keeping the current functionality? My local dealer estimates it would be over £2k.

Change it to what exactly ? A strange looking Round one
Yes, one of those old fashioned, round things. I am eccentric enough without having an odd shaped wheel.

It’s not like flat bottom steering wheels have just arrived though.Yes, one of those old fashioned, round things. I am eccentric enough without having an odd shaped wheel.
Most performance variants of every brand have had them since the late 2000’s
Count yourself lucky you don’t own one of those Peugeot thingys with the ghastly flat top and bottom wheels

A round one will work for you if you like hitting your knees getting in/out mate.😂

If I ever get fat enough that I can’t get under a round wheel in an RS3 it’s time for a serious diet or an RS4.

I have a nice big round one from an old 70s Land Rover in the garage you could hot glue switches to.
