This is a picture of my drivers seat. First time for me having a car with leather seats fitted so I wondered if it's normal for the bit you sit on to look like this as I think it looks a bit baggy! The cars now done 1000 miles and I weight fourteen and three quarter stone. Passenger side is as perfect as the day I picked the car up and has had the missus on it every time I've been out in the car. Granted she's sub 10 stone! :confused:

Make sure you clean and feed leather seats every 3 months. A leather cleaner/feeder from Sainsbury will be fine or you could buy something like gliptones liquid leather cleaner and conditioner.

I love the Alfatex seats in my 156, very comfortable and showing no signs of wear, the joy of a manmade material you can make it better.

After purchased numbers of different brand of leather care products (Megauirs, Autoglym, Eagle 1, Mothers, Zaino, Colonii). Glipstone is best I ever tried by far.

It comes up high gloss in the first 5-10mins then the finish is the mattest I have ever seen. You almost think you didn't apply the product. The absorption is amazing unless most of the product sit on top the leather. It also strink the leather too.
