Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel

Advantages: Very robust and firm wheel. wireless
Disadvantages: MAY STRIKE SOME AS "CHEAP" LOOKING

...This wheel comes extremely well packaged and may take you a few mintues to actually get into it but atleast this lends assurance that it will transport well when it was shipped. The packages comes in 3 separate parts: >Wheel >Pedals >Table attachement WHEEL: The wheel itself is covered in a highly durable rubber covering making it very easy to keep a grip on it, which is an important feature if like me yours hands can sweat in the middle of an intense race. The wheel also has all the buttons you would find on a normal controller and they are all intuitively placed. The X,Y, A,B buttons are placed in easy reach of the thumb so when driving they are easy reachablt. The trigger buttons are also present as large levers placed directly behind the wheel so as you can easily use them but with enough room between them and the wheel...

Wonder Woman's Wheels. . .

Advantages: Great for cleaning them.
Disadvantages: Expensive.

...Well known, and used by the motor industry as the professional cleaning product, also recommended and approved by the majority of motor manufacturers, as well as AutoTrader, What Car, and AutoExpress. In fact, speaking of Auto Express, the Wonder wheels product is the number one selling and multiple award winning alloy wheel cleaner. Wonder wheels has won the Auto Express product honours for eleven consecutive years! OK that sounds like an advert, it is actually. I lifted it from the CarPlan site, have a look for yourself http://www.carplan.co.uk/index.cfm?page=1 Contents of cardboard box are, 500ml wheel cleaner, 1 application bristle brush and a dispensing container. This stuff is now also available in a "trigger bottle". Instructions. To use, firstly I suggest doing this just after washing the car, that way a lot of the dirt...

Review of Wonder Wheels Cleaning Kit

The big wheel keeps on turning!

Advantages: A great attraction for Windsor
Disadvantages: none

...A few weeks ago it was the bank holiday weekend and we had friends staying so we thought we would take in some of our local attractions. Windsor is only half an hour away from where we live so we decided to head over there with the intention of taking all our children on the Royal Windsor Wheel - which was a first for us all. I had looked up the details on the website at www.royalwindsorwheel.com We could have booked our tickets in advance but I decided that, because my four year old daughter is sometimes a bit unsure of things and may well take one look at it and decide that she wasn't going on it, to risk not booking. As it was, on a Sunday lunchtime it was not busy, my daughter was quite happy and we virtually walked on straightaway as soon as we had paid. The Windsor Wheel is probably best described as a smaller version...

Review of Royal Windsor Wheel, Berkshire

The wheels on the Wii go round and round

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: see review

...This is a funny old product because, of course, it's not really much more than a circular piece of plastic, yet it feels so good! The Wii Wheel is a driving wheel for use with Wii games that, erm, require you to drive. The way it works is you insert the Wii remote into it (it fits very snug), and then use the whole thing to drive. The Wii remote is not included in the purchase. There is a 'B' button on the back of the wheel, operatable with your left pointy finger. The wheel cost me £6.99 on sopto.net and is the same price in Game stores around the country. Although the price seems very reasonable, it should be pointed out that standard Wii remotes are not at all practical for driving games, and really it's an additional cost that you pretty much HAVE to spend to be able to play racing games and the like, so it would have been...

Review of NINTENDO Wii Wheel - wheel

Six wheels on my Wagon

Advantages: Individually wrapped, taste ok, not too pricey
Disadvantages: Ordinary these days.

...Wagon Wheels are one of those last few remaining treats that I remember from my childhood, and are still around. As kids we would be given a wagon wheel occasionally and they seemed huge taking ages to eat. I know that when we are young children we are usually quite small but I dont think that this is the only reason that Wagon Wheels seem to be so small nowadays by comparison. Still, in line with other such products, as their size has diminished their price has not. They are usually purchased these days in multi-packs such as the one I bought this week that hold 6 individually wrrapped wagon wheels. A wagon wheel is basically a round biscuit that is a good couple of inches in diameter. There are two digestive type biscuits sandwiched together with mallow and the whole concoction is covered in a cholcolate flavoured coating. Notice...

Review of Burtons Wagon Wheels

Four wheels good.......Two wheels better

Advantages: Great stories/articles, loads of guest writers, great photography
Disadvantages: Too many adverts - but this is the case with most publications

...Two Wheels is a bike magazine aimed at real bike enthusiasts. It is a monthly magazine that is part of the visordown.com group. The Editor in Chief is Grant Leonard and columnists include ex racer Niall Mackenzie, ex racer Jamie Whitham and the Pitbull. The main features and articles of this magazine are as follows: ****Road tests**** A lot of this magazine is articles on specific bikes and testing them to their limits. The handling is tested, the comfort is tested, the acceleration is tested, the top speed is tested and, most importantly, what they are like to live with on a daily basis is tested. To keep it all legal and above board the bikes are tested on the track (for the speed and handling tests), on the drag strip (for the acceleration and top end test) and on the road (for handling and the ?real life? test...

Review of Two Wheels Only

Caramel Wagon Wheels an Acquired Taste

Advantages: Large
Disadvantages: Tastes Like Cardboard

...We are all quite fond of eating biscuits in my household. In fact we tend to go through quite a lot in the space of a week often as a result of packed lunches for all of us and an after school snack for the children. I tend to try and buy slightly more healthy versions for example serial bars however occasionally if I see a special offer on at the local supermarket I will tend to buy a slightly more indulgent biscuit pack. Apparently the Wagon Wheel is making something of a comeback at the moment and I was enticed to buy a packet of the caramel version of the product as it was on offer for a pack of six for 50p. I remember these years ago however I'm sure they had jam in them then!! The wagon wheel biscuit apparently has been around since the 1940's and are the biggest chocolate biscuit available to buy on the market (these are...

Review of Burtons Wagon Wheels

The Catherine Wheel

Advantages: Consistent, quality band
Disadvantages: Later albums weren't *quite* as good

...I was pleased that Ciao added this band in as a category (at my asking, I admit!), I thought they had been unfairly neglected so far and they're a top band. So if you're sitting comfortably... Catherine Wheel were formed in 1990 and are probably best described (during their early days) as shoegaze-oriented indie-rock with a supreme ear for melody and an uncharacteristically (for the genre) strong and present vocalist in Rob Dickinson. Despite being pigeonholed with other bands of this sub-genre such as My Bloody Valentine, they probably owed more to the reto-indie groups of the time such as House of Love. Certainly they were more of a straightforward rock outfit from this point of view, although they were still an original band. They brought out their first album "Ferment" in 1992. This, along with "Chrome" from 1993 rates as...

Review of The Catherine Wheel

A Wheelie bad idea!!!!!! Golds Gym Exercise wheel

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: You could quite easily end up in traction!!!!! Awful, disasterous etc etc

...Now this piece of kit is right up there with the most pointless, cheap, nasty and in my opinion dangerous pieces of equipment on the market. I almost laughed out loud when I first came across this and perhaps offers proof that some people will buy THE most pointless pieces of equipment known to man in the pursuit of physical perfection. My first thought was not that it was a piece of exercise equipment but rather a toy emulating the ?Wheelies? from Return to OZ. I was wrong WHAT IS IT? You can?t really dress this piece of equipment up, it?s a plastic rod which has been put through a wheel. That?s it. You hold each side of the wheel and roll backwards and forwards and this action apparently works out the abdominal muscles. Essentially you become a wheelbarrow. Apologies for the crude analogy but that really is all there is too...

18 Wheels of Steel - Haulin'

Advantages: Very Simple, Highly Addictive, Lots of Variety
Disadvantages: Can get slightly boring

...I don?t often play games on the computer, mainly because my computer isn?t capable of playing anything worth playing. However this is one of the few rare games that my computer can handle and is somewhat entertaining. Now I must say that Haulin? isn?t the latest game from the 18 Wheels of Steel franchise, in fact it comes somewhere in the middle, but if the old version is this good, the new version must be killer. 18 Wheels of Steel has a very simple game concept.You have to drive a truck from point A to point B without damaging the truck or getting fined by the police and losing all your assets and hence the game (big problem at the beginning for me). The game does give you a variety of what sort of goods you want to haul which can vary from a rack of cars to some vegetables and even animals. You?ll be hauling this stuff across America...
