I pulled out my old G25 over Christmas, did a bit of LFS racing. But it wouldn't fix to my new table (too thick) so it was wires coming across open plan room to the island with my gas hob! In addition my shifter has broken. When I got an invite this week to test trophi.ai from Driver61, I decided it might be a good time to look at upgrades, as having only 2 buttons on the G25 was never great (especially in VR), and even worse this time when I couldn't fit my keyboard between the G25 and my gas hob, lol.
For a low budget (new or used) I want to ensure:
FF and pedals at least as good as G25 (happy to use old pedals if adaptor is cheap)
More wheel buttons than G25
Reliability/build quality similar to G25 (or at least as good as first wheel, guillemot/logitech Ferrari FF, which lasted a decent amount of time)
Ideally can fit my thick table (mounting surface depth 55mm), or other option is IKEA Kallax shelving unit that holds the square boxes (depth 38mm) as long as the pedals will fit in one of the squares (width 336mm)
I'm kicking myself I didn't buy the G27 I saw 2 days ago on eBay for £70 as I wanted to research first. If anyone is selling a wheel set, I'm ok with broken shifter or pedals, as long as wheel and shift paddles work and I can use my G25 pedals with it
