I do not know this Victor wheel,but german Minis aound the late 70ies and early 80ies wer often sold with Victor wheels from factory.
This wheel is called victor F and is not really rare in Germany.
The victor F is one of the few steering wheels You can drive legally here, it papers and is TÜV
approved.
