With leather, I'd only ever get black.

Would never buy a car with black paintwork, though. I'm a bit remiss about cleaning cars! :D

Lighter leather is far easier to keep looking new for longer imho, if you see any thing on it you wipe it off, black hides it all and you only really notice when it is too late.

Yeah but it looks like an old persons colour choice. All you need to add is the tartan blanket in the parcel shelf and some wearthers originals in the front and your good to go to the bowling club

Totally disagree, to me the lighter leathers look far more modern...

Not sure I'd agree with "lighter = modern". IMO it's all about a harmonious interior, and I must say that yours looks very nice indeed.

(just a little jealous)

I like the black leather interior and that picture of the red interior, which looked pink to me, was horrible.

We've had black, grey and cream leather interiors in our cars and I think black is the smartest.

As for the blonde/brunette thing, well I have been both and it makes not the slightest bit of difference ;)

Problem for me is the black headlining makes the cabin feel really small, although I can see why some make it feel more cossetting and prefer that.
