leather or not?
« on: May 10, 2010, 09:56:59 pm »
Could anyone give their opinion on leather seats? Nice and comfy or annoying after a while? Do they stand the test of time?
cheers

I've had cars with full leather before and have to say i prefer cloth seats. More comfy, not so cold in the winter and less sliding around when nailing on some nice roads
