Consider going for the Logitech Driving Force Pro. It costs a wee bit more, but that is the best wheel there is. Think the price tag is about 60 quid. Ron's wheel base is a Driving Force Pro, fitted with another wheel - but the FFB is the same.

Please note - they say its only for the PS2, but it works with the PC as well.
