Thanks for the reply, one of the problems is that there is no steering lock.

Turn full lock left then use an extension bar, don't be shy, it'll come undone!

You have no choice, brute force mate and dont forget when it does free itself, before you take the wheel off, leave the bloody nut on or you may have a bloody face.

And remember to centre it and mark the position, or you'll end up with a wonky off centre wheel when you put it back.
