Hello all
I have owned this car 3 years now and have only just noticed that the leather has been dyed!
Recently I went into the local stealership for a couple of bits and the guy put the chassis number into the computer.
It came out with the complete spec of my car from new which included the 'light brown leather'.
The seats have allways appeared to be a rather strange orangey browny colour, especially the passenger seat (but not the backrest part of it?).
The guy recomended a leather cleaner so I thought I would go for it.
The leather already appeared darker inbetween the creases, and this stuff lightened the colour to what I allways expected light brown leather to look like!
1)Does anybody know if MB ever dyed their interior leather?
2)Does anybody have a pic of a 'light brown leather interior'?
3)Does anybody know a better cleaner to remove this dye as its still a bugger to get off on the passenger seat?
Thanks again all for your support, I dont know what I'd do without all your knowledge out there.
Cheers
Paul
