Leather Wear & Tear - MINI Cooper Forum

ST967 · #1 (**permalink**) Mar 26th, 2007, 01:12 AM

Hi all, I am trying to decide whether to get full leather on my Aus spec MINI...
My main concern, though, is how well it will wear.
Main thing is scratching it with buckled/buttons/clips etc on clothing. I have an mx-5 at the moment with 1/2 leather and it has got scratches for press duds on the back pockets of jeans.
Anyone out there got any advice?
Cheers

I've got the full english leather and haven't had any problems so far (had Olive for 3 months now). Lots of metals buttons etc on my shorts and nothing.

Mine's alright, no scratch or anything and it's a couple of years old.

I suppose treat it with those cream thing every couple of months to keep it looking spanking new
