Is this synthetic leather or real leather?

[Luke721]

REAL leather - thought of putting, but wife put up violent objection as she's afraid of the initial "barbeque" after parking in the sun for too long

Best part about leather is the smell and also it's easy to clean but hard to maintain as you need to oil it regularly to maintain the suppleness in the leather.

 

If you park your car often in the open and subject to long hours of strong sunlight, it is really not advisable.

[Sparetyre]

True but leather also dissipitate heat faster. ie, it cools down faster than fabric..

[Turbobrick]

Regular maintenance is absolutely necessary to prevent the natural cracks in the leather from splitting open

[Mondeo]

Easy way is let it be sat all the time. U'll see the shine on surface or at least no cracks.

Just oiled mine on Wednesday with Conolly cream which I got from Jackspeed. They also did my old C Class, workmanship was good. Been buying their leather cream ever since.

I DIY clean and condition my leather seats with Mother's cleaner and condition kit. Works well and does not leave a too oily film, conditioner smells like new leather too!

[Oinkened]

DIY myself as well practically once a month even I send in my car for grooming every three months. Bo Pian man... hse no shelter car park so have to do so more often.[unsure]

[Luke721]

You're correct about the smell and feel ... sigh ... maybe for my next car then

[Luke721]
