    For £100 a dfgt or the F430

    A second hand G25 is about £160 on ebay :/

    Or I would recommend stretching to a G27. I got mine for £181 by using discounts and cashback.

    +1 on that. Best wheel for the price... had mine now for nearly 2 years and it's still amazing :)

    Hands down Logitech G25 or G27 is the wheel to get if you are into racing games. My god... I am not lucky enough to afford one - A am kicking myself about letting a £90 deal on Play go when they were just about to stop production. I know two people who have them and I couldn't use another wheel again. It is perfect.

    Can't go wrong with the DFGT for the price. Probably have to double your budget for anything much better. Use it with the ps3 too so handy for a session on grand turismo :)

    If its for EA games the Logitech ones have generally better support.

    I've used both G25 and DFGT. FFB DFGT better-newer gear FFB mechanism-despite only one motor. No clutch. Id you have no idea how much sim racing you will be doing, then best thing is to start with a DFGT and progress higher. I am currently using DFGT with DPS-200 paddle shifters
