Real moo ! They'll soften up with use, feel pretty hard when new don't they. Some nice leather treatment works wonders at softening them up.

G6ET MKII Member 29 Member For: 11y 8m 2d Gender: Male Posted 07/11/13 11:33 AM Share Posted 07/11/13 11:33 AM Why im asking is because car only year 1/2 old and its already peeling both front seats.There are different grades of leather and pretty sure ford uses the cheapest one.This shouldnt be happening even if it is the cheapest grade hence is why im asking is it really real leather.

Our 50th is 3yrs old, garaged nightly but sits in hospital car park every day during week in the sun and still minted. I put cream on ours every 4/5mths or when I get the urge to detail it. No dramas to report. Its under warranty, get into them.

I know your seats are different but not sure if leather is same, I'd assume it would be as good or better being the lux model ?

G6ET MKII Member 29 Member For: 11y 8m 2d Gender: Male Posted 07/11/13 11:58 AM Share Posted 07/11/13 11:58 AM I will try to post one tmrw. I'm guessing they use same leather for all models that come standard. Just a bad batch I think.

Pretty sure its technically pleather. Cant wait to have it all retrimmed with something decent 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/84556-leather-or-cloth-trim-fg/page/3/#findComment-1438707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
