Ahh actually I have two pairs of driving gloves only one of which has the string back feature. Good for hot sunny days IMHO. I found when we had the Cherokee the sweat from my hands was detrimental tot eh leather steering wheel. In the Rover 75 it has a Aubergine personal line interior with Aubergine coloured steering wheel for which it seems touch up dye in impossible to find. the gloves protect the wheel. The wood gear know of course is a better solution to the gold hands and daft covers:-

The gear lever has been shortened 3/4".

and seen here also in the MPi:-

IMHO it just fits in beautifully. As I am not a basketball player with huge hands I don't need a gear know the size of a small football.

You big softies I love the alloy knob

But If it's really cold I just leave the TF in the garage and drive the ZT, with its heated seats leather gear knob and climate control,it's slightly more expensive than a new gear knob but I'm worth it

Cut a couple of inches off our big knob and fitted a ZT Wood/Leather knob to match the wood trim and keep our hands warm, sitting on heated leather seats

Well the only MG's I have ever had are the MGF's that I have now but for bad weather and carrying more there is the choice of the Rover 623 GSi and the Rover 75 Connoisseur .

we have a solution to the cold knob on the F.

I have a Carbon Fibre knob



The car has one too.

Yeah I have seen the silly covers and don't like them or even the idea of them. As the are not secure I feel it's an incident waiting to happen ................................. IMHO

you don't use them while you're driving.

A courtesy car I had once had a heated steering wheel and I had a heated seat cover in my TF. It was lovely and warm. So, warm that it made me sweat if left on for more than half an hour, even in freezing conditions. Can you see where this is leading?..

So, wouldn't it be nice to have a plug in heated gearstick cover. There's plenty with solid aluminium knobs that'd welcome that lil gizmo.

Alternatively..


And don't tell me that you haven't..
