Default Favorit steering wheel

The steering wheel on my 96 favorit has broken (God knows how) and won't pass its mot.To increase my chances of finding a cheap replacement can anybody tell me if the steering wheel of another car (VW perhaps) will fit?

If it helps, apparently the nut inside the steering wheel is an M14.

All Favorits have the horn switch on the indicator stalk.

Must have been the 1996 throwing off the trail. According to wikipedia last Favorits were 1995, with the Felicia starting around 1994 up to 2001.

Should be able to go to halfords and get a standard wheel and the correct fittings for the centre. Replaced a favorit steering wheel bout 4 years ago by visiting halfords. Duck tape lasted the 200 mile journey but the wheel needed replacing after that lol

It's since they lumped the damn Favorits in with the Felly forum,
the shame of it, is this what the fabia forum has to look forwards to?

Why cant every model have its own forum space?. I dont think the octy owners would stand for it if the roomster brigade started taking over with talk of beige interiors and bicycle carrying capabilities. LOL
