Leather or cloth seats....

Benefits and/or negatives of both.... or is it just down to personal preference?

I had half leathers in my a3 so i has the best of both. Lol
Ive got cloth in my saloon at the moment, found some sline leather interior last week, but they wouldnt fit as they were out of an avant with folding rear seats and my seats are fixed!
Imho i prefer leather as its easier to clean and looks better

im personally edging towards leather as my daughter is 2, and you know the mess kids can make...

and I think I would cry if my seats were stained with chocolate, juice, ketchup, mud etc etc..... in fact, I can feel the tears now... :aargh4:

I have only had leather in my cars for the past 15 years .

They look better imo

easier to clean.

But bloody cold in the winter and burn you in the summer .

Leather as they are more durable and dont smell. They also clean up better and look better too. I would never get cloth again...

There are a few sets on ebay at the minute, although im not sure if they are full sets or just front seats.... They were £800+ i think....

Leather it is then!!

Cloth all the way for me, leather is heavier meaning a slower car !!!! lol
