hi lads im new to the forum and have played gt5 since it came out and with the driving force wheel. i now am looking at something like this

not the all out motion one just the basic core model with the monitor stand 5.1 surround sound buttkicker etc. im also wanting to run a setup with the csw gtr m3 wheel. any other premium rigs available in the uk? have a budget of 2500 pounds its my 21st birthday gift.

Based in the UK, take a look at the GamePod GT2.

Other option is the Humanracing rig not based in UK though.

And well, for the complete list see the sticky thread:

GT Omega EVO is an affordable rig and I recommend it they are U.K based

The GamePod & Humanracing are tacky? Ok, each to their own.

Had a look at the VisionRacer VR3 ?

2,500 pounds is around US$5k. The SimXperience Stage IV Motion Simulator is around US$5.5k - Now we're talking!

That doesn't look very adjustable. I would go with something like the obutto
r3volution, or the fanatec rensport cockpit before I would that. It does look pretty though but not very functional. Also something you should think about is are you going to go triple screen, or are you using headphones or a surround sound system.
