Probably not saffron (too expensive) but turmeric. I know it is very hard to get out of clothes as it really is a pretty effective dye.

Tough one on leather but there are loads of cleaning products available for specific types of stain (stain devils etc) maybe one of these product manufacturers could offer advice. Here's one at http://www.staindevils.co.uk/

Alternatively ask at a specialist dry cleaners who might be able to have a go at removing it. Probably worth a try before you fork out for a new seat cover.

If I ever go for a carry out I wrap it up in an old towel in the boot.

Good luck.
