Anyone got a Driving Station?

Been wanting a wheel for driving games for a while now, but i dont really have the space for a nice driving setup and dont fancy sitting on my lap or PC desk when playing. So i came across this, its pretty much what i want a sturdy platform to hold the wheel and some thing i can just move out of the way,

Its quite hard to find, ive spoken to the UK distributor and they only deal with one online company, so before i take my inquiry further has any got/used one of these?

I am finding the situation equally difficult. I am interested in this too, the pdf also states that it has a side support to hold eventual gear shifter.

Would this include the G25 shifter? Hmmm very interesting please let me know if you find out more as I would be interested depending on price...

I'm thinking about this, as i mostly play driving games....

The A1Playseat is lovely, but £300 for it is too much. I can't help but wonder about making one myself. Buying a second hand bucket seat for £50, and then some old steel and a lot of welding. I am very tempted....

More I look at this the more I actually think its what im after, please let me know if you find the company that ships them in the uk.

A certain popular place had them in stock only a couple weeks ago at £90 each which actually isn't bad when you consider it nearly gives the functionality of a full seat at a third of the price.

However they are out of stock now, worth keeping an eye on to see if they get more - they're still listed there, can't give you a hint, just check the usual suspects.

No, the whole concept of it is that it folds up into a rather small package that can then be stowed away behind your sofa or something along those lines. Far more suitable for my needs - the missus would never allow a full on racing seat in the front room.
