Just flamed my steering wheel!

Well ever since I had the D4 there have always been the odd little hairs coming from the steering wheel stitching.
Obviously they're only visible when whizzing down the motorway. Rolling Eyes
Occassinally at traffic lights I'd pull them out ... though they eventually always re appear, but in slightly bigger numbers!
Well today was their day, just went out Rambo stylee with my mini flame thrower and singed the b*ggers!!
Now just wait and see if the little sods decide ever to come back.
Wink
Anyone else have a hairy steering wheel?

So, D3's get sticky wheels, D4 get hairy wheels, what on earth will D5 be afflicted with?

Would have been really funny if Ron had burned out his car for a few hairs. Snigger

Ron, it's that testosterone you've been adding with the 2sO. Whistle
