I investigated different possibilities before selling my R-Type Bentley recently. I was quoted between £6,000 and £10,000 by Power Steering 'specialists'. Having said that, I encountered a Volvo P1800ES owner last week who had had a purely electronic conversion done on his car that was a fraction of this cost.
Like the 408, the R-Type has beautifully designed steering, so that above
circa 4 or 5 mph it is as light as a feather, but shuffling round carparks, well that is another matter.
