The Story Behind the Moto-Lita Mk3 Dished Wooden Steering Wheel

Owning a Moto-Lita Mk3 dished wooden steering wheel is about more than just adding a beautiful piece of art to your car. It's about connecting with a product that's been hand-crafted with the same care, precision, and passion for over 60 years.

Every step of the process, from selecting the perfect wood to signing off the final product, happens right here in our British workshop, using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations.

Our workshop harks back to the era where quality ruled over speed. Here, each steering wheel is crafted by hand by experienced craftsmen who instinctively know when something is perfect. From cutting the frame to selecting, polishing and shaping the wood, every step is done with purpose and care.

We still use the same dishing machine developed more than six decades ago, ensuring that the process remains true to the heritage of the brand. As the wood rim is fitted and smoothed to perfection, our craftsmen hold the wheel, inspect it, and shape it until it meets their exacting standards. No shortcuts, just a dedication to producing work of the highest quality.

And when it’s finished, the wheel isn’t just signed off. It’s cherished. You see, when you take hold of your new Moto-Lita Mk3 wheel, you’re not just feeling the smoothness of the deeply varnished wood or the cool, polished alloy spokes. You’re feeling the pride and passion of every single artisan that brought it to life. There’s a lot of love and care that goes into every single Moto-Lita wheel, and we want you to feel as connected to it as we do.

For those who understand what it means to hold something truly special, this wheel is for you. Because, let’s face it, most people wouldn’t understand the desire to run their fingers around a steering wheel. But you do. You know that when you drive with a Moto-Lita Mk3 in your hands it's more than just steering. It’s about being in total harmony with the journey.
