Driving turtles

What type of turtles do you guys wear when driving on the road, I'm finding that my hands are slipping on the wheel and need more grip.

A pair of decent full finger cycling gloves works for me. Mine are alcantara palm type Kona ones like these

Thin biker's gloves from Lewis Leathers (ages old!) for warm weather, and 12v heated gloves for cold (they're quite warm without plugging them in too). In really warm weather I go without, as my wheel's covered in leather and is generally non-slip in normal use.

I use either goatskin golf gloves or regular batting gloves on my tintops
But only on the road.
For city driving I think they're too much of a hassle...

The rubber-dipped thermally insulated ones Screwfix do in black for £5-£8. Seem to work fine.
