I got mine from PC World in store, and both Argos and Game have them in stock. Not sure about online though - they seem a bit rarer there.

"possible" due to lack of clutch but more likely due to a certain Forza 3 being superb on the wheel and everyone is rushing out getting them.

i would have thought info would have leaked on "tinternet" all over the place if a new wheel was coming.

I tried getting mine at Argos then I searched the whole internet for hours.

Finally bought mine here: Xbox 360 Wireless Wheel With Force Feedback

I also found this coupon for them online "bg5%", but I had to create an account first.


Good luck finding it.

"Usually dispatched within 2-5 weeks" - that means they have no stock and would rely upon their supplier - quite possible you would get an email after 5 weeks telling you your order has been delayed even further!
