What's Going On WIth Fanatec ?

[reggieray902587]

Does anyone know what is going on with Fanatec kit (UK) at the moment ? Just been on their site to order a CSL Elite starter wheel /base but only two podium bundles available, no CSL or Clubsport bases or bundles at all. I like reading about the hardware reviews on RD but where are you all getting this kit from ???

Not that I'm complaining, but looking at the Clubsport Steering wheel RS and noticing how similar it was to the old Porsche wheel; does Fanatec mean to tell me that the Porsche logo cost $100? What in the name of Zool? But either way, that is exactly what I wanted in a round wheel.

I'm glad I only paid 319€ during the last black Friday sale. It's fully identical to my Porsche wheel, apart from the magnetic paddles!
Also glad that I like the brown leather with the Porsche logo a bit better over this fanatec-design.

Great to get this wheel updated, upgraded and sold for a more reasonable price!

An important upgrade is the possibility to mount the QR2 here, which is not possible with the old BMW and Porsche steering wheel.
