Cheap racing sim cockpit

Clubconsoles

I have a logitech G27 sitting on a wobbly table. I would really like to use it but I can't because it is too much hassle. I need a racing sim cockpit that...

 

1) Is slim

2) Has at least 1 screen mount

3) speaker mounts (Mounts for back speakers not needed)

4) Somewhere to put a PC (Thinking of a dell optiplex 755 and R7 250 as I am on a tight budget)

5) It needs to be £100 - £150

6) It needs to have a mount for the gear stick.

7) Is easy to move if necessary.

 

Also should I make a DIY one instead?

 

Thanks.

DIY is probably the cheapest solution

For the price and quality you should try DIY, and i doubt that somebody knows any model for the price against quality/requirments

I very much doubt you'll find something that matches all your requirements for the price you want.

 

Only thing I found with in your price range is this, though it does not have monitor or speaker mounts.
