Tobacco Odour Removal

Hi again all

Now im back in a Cooper S and a very happy man, i have 1 small issue that would be nice to sort......... Clearly the previous owner of the car smoked. It can't be too bad as the cars only around 14 months old and only covered 4,000 miles!

The seats are full leather(if this makes any difference to the cleaning process) and i have the Anthracite roof lining.

The dealer have supposdly given it a 'full valet' before i collected the car, however i can clearly see bits that haven't really been valeted at all!

Just really looking for advice on the best way/product to remove tobacco odours?

Thanks in advance.

I periodically spray Ozium in the car, just a couple of short sprays. I spray it near the cabin air intake and then once it gets in the system I turn it off, usually just before I get home from work. You might make sure they changed the cabin air filter as well. I am a cigar smoker...
