My new G25 is here

The Queen · March 25, 2008

Just ordered myself......a G25! :D

Been waiting for months to get myself one of these amazing pieces of kit and finally tonight I got to order one. Got it on a 24-48 hour delivery service so should be here on Thursday or Friday. I can't wait to use it as so many people have recommended it and I have heard so much about it.

Will get pictures and hopefully some videos of me using it so watch out :cool::excited:

For now here is a picture that I got from the net ;)

E: Forgot to say :) Nice one, you've joined the expensive wheel club (even though mine was free :p)

S71NG3R · March 25, 2008

Haha. I will try my best. May take me a little while to get used to the wheel though. Everyone is welcome to come on and see me crashing off and such :D

Hehe. Yes this will probably get me to buy GTR 2 even though I have already tried to buy it but a guy in HMV said that it is now discontinued. May have to resort to Ebay :p

It wont be screnuous, just the car park scene :) I'll see f you're good enough for my high standard of driving then :p I'll be up at 7am as mum is going out and I'll be able to get on TDU without her wondering why I'm not doing my c/w :D

Myrdin · March 25, 2008

I am sooo jealous xD I want one too, but don't buy it cuz I've already got a Wingman Formula Force GP. If I FINALLY have TDU (Which is still not here) I hope I can see you driving :D

Andreas¹ · March 25, 2008

Hehe, I sawed on MSN 8-) Congrats :)

Speedtouch · March 25, 2008

Wahay! You won't regret it. It is an amazing piece of kit and really makes TDU.

Mb · March 25, 2008

You ordered yourself?

Where can i do that? I need a copy of myself to make my homework and go to school, work for me and get much money! :D

Well, nice ;)

Join the wheeldrivers club :)

i got mine a few weeks ago, awesome :D i got it so cheap too, so worth it. :D

Almost better then driving my real car :P

Myrdin · March 26, 2008

Cheap? g25? WHERE??!!!!

March 26, 2008

Cheap? g25? WHERE??!!!!

i got it NEw off ebay for $200 AUD, about $190 USD

Mb · March 26, 2008

190USD is around 120euro, ffs, that's damn cheap!

Myrdin · March 26, 2008

:O:O

I buy one around november (13 nov. is my birthday :D)

The Queen · March 26, 2008

...and 120 Euro is around £90 which is bloody cheap. Nice catch!

I knew someone who knew someone who was selling one and he was selling it for £80, although it wasn't brand new but I never had any money at the time :(. Ah well...

eleKtro · March 26, 2008

When I used my brothersw G25 for like 10 hours straight, just slow crusing! Never had so much fun! 8 people slow crusing with controllers or pedals to control speed. Great Fun, and for the wheel itself, awesome!

The Queen · March 28, 2008

Just an update on the wheel. It's scheduled for being delivered today and heres the log from UPS for you to have a look ;)

hesonly5 · March 28, 2008

wtf? Why has it gone from France to the UK via Germany? :oook:

ShadowGT · March 28, 2008

:( *Feels sad that i can't afford one of those fang dangled G25's or any wheel for that matter*

The Queen · March 28, 2008

wtf? Why has it gone from France to the UK via Germany? :oook:

I don't actually know but I think thats the route they take to go to the UK. No idea why (lol) :D

So i'm guessing the guy is out delivering things and should be here anytime before 5pm so 95% sure that it will be here today. There shouldn't be any problems with finding our house because the guy has already phoned this morning asking for directions ;)

So cool being able to track where it's come from and what route it has taken. I would have though it would have gone from France through the Channel Tunnel and up through the UK or from Paris Airport to some other Airport in the UK. Would never have thought that it would go to Germany before the UK! :p
