Where can i get one from, and what should i pay!?

Is there any reason to NOT buy 2nd hand?

eBay I would have thought. Probably around £120-£150 from the quick look I just had.

Not heard of any stories of them breaking down. Me and friend both have them and used them fairly heavy use and they still work perfectly.

Logitech don't make them anymore so you'll probably have to get a second hand one. The quality of the G25 is so good i would of thought you won't have any problems buying a used one smile.

Surprised at the replies. I've had a replacement and 2 others have as well. Fair play to Logitech they hold up to their warranties above and beyond (no need to return the whole wheel just the power cables), replacement wheel arrived in 4 days.

Play.com did do offers now and again on the G25, the G27 is on *offer* at OCUK at £220 for now.

Recommended though, My replacement is almost a year old now and everything still works. I'd just be wary of 2nd hand wheels that may have slight issues which the seller has had a replacement for.

You were at MBW last night weren't you?

I've spent all morning looking at wheels, G25s for sensible money seem rare and the G27 is a lot of cash - the one last night was the force GT I think which is 100 quid from argos (90 from Amazon but not sure i'm patient enough to wait for them to deliver) - seemed to do the job perfectly well......

i was indeed, and ive just ordered one those as i dont like ebay, which seems the only place you can get a G25.... and the G27 is mega. Cost 90 + 7 for next day delivery! Only thing i didnt like was the pedal feel... im sure i can get round it!

Damn just seen this topic! I was considering selling my G25 as I've used it about twice in the last year!

Will have to stick it on ebay I think now!

Sorry Graham,

Only just read this sorry. I was thinking around £110ish, however I have a feeling it may be too late now. Again, apologies for not replying earlier.

If you are still interested drop me a mail through my profile.

Cheers

Well if you look back the MS 360 wheels were £99 and to be honest shocking quality! So £120 is a bit of a bargain!

Should be able to get one second hand for £70 - 80

Make te effort and get a new one. You should definately make i teh G25/27 or fanatech wheels as games and mods are usuaully designed with them in mind in terms of feedback. For the ultimate setup, G25 gear shifter, G27 Wheel and Fanatec Clubsport pedals!

Fanatec are repotedly making a clubsport gearshifter which shouls be very good, aluminium (like th pedals) with force feedback!
