tbh i was thinking you may have them up at ?250. maybe even ?200.
what was everyone else thinnking?
There's no way I'd be able to buy the parts and get the thing made for that!
I guess if you went out and got a column and built it up yourself you could do it under that but not a huge amount less, then there's the other costs to add on.
I guess it's a different thing to make one for yourself in your garage and to design and built a concept, pre-prod and test it, provide insurances, warrenties etc etc.

i understand all that, i don't think that you are trying to rip people off or anything, and there are lots and lots of people that will pay that just for piece of mind. i'm just saying that i can't afford that and i'm sure there are others that can't either.

That's cool - If your on a budget then building one yourself is the way to go

I read somewhere that the TSR power steering kits used to sell for about ?1000 which if right shows that Crazy Quiff's is half that….
again, i'm just saying i can't afford that. not knocking his price at all.

I believe the Fiat Seicento runs a similar electric power assistance setup.
The cheapest option would be to but some weights and build up those biceps! lol

i have a new car with electric pas and i hate it!
you cant feel a thing what the wheels are doing you have to judge them.
i think for me it would not be as involving as the standard setup.

I don't think "steering column" and "on the cheap" are phrases you want to hear in the same sentence really.
Isn't that what killed the great Ayrton Senna?
