        This was the wheel designed by Momo for the GolfIII in the mid 90's. Its a common mistake but the horn button is what determines the difference between the wheels. This horn button simply says 'MOMO Italy' where the OG Benetton says " Benetton F1 Team" and made in the late 80's/early 90's. If you can snatch one of these for $150 GRAB IT and EBAY IT!!

                I do appreciate the feedback nevertheless. :)
                I have a mint Benetton wheel I picked up at a swap meet for $20 about 5 years ago. I know exactly what it's worth and I'll probably be holding onto it for a long time. That's a beautiful car with some great rare parts. Congrats!

                      Love the exterior, not feeling the 'fisher price' wheel, even if it is rare...

                              What!? Can I have it? :D

                              OP, car looks fantastic! I'm quite jealous that you happen to have 2 Benettons.


                              Go here be happy!

                                I've had one wheel for over 10 years and the other for just about 5. I tried to part with one of them recently then asked myself 'what was I doing??!'
