Cloth/leather interior: where's leather?

Hi fellow Mini addicts.

The Mini i'm interested in has "cloth/leather" according to my dealership. But what does this mean, exactly? Which parts will be cloth, and which leather?

Thanking you kindly (God I hate that expression)

Will

the leather will be on your seats - Leather trimming with cloth everything else. You may get the stearing wheel and gear stick in leather.

I think that is it nearly, hope this help, and hey a few rep points won't go ammis. lol

If im right in remembering, its the lumbar supports are leather, and the bit where you bum is, is cloth, and also the bit where you back is. They are very nice, im going for the black/blue ones

These should help clear it up: http://www.mini2.com/forum/interior-ice/61951-seat-upholstery-interior-trim-gallery.html In the last two, the red is the cloth part, the black is the leather part. You can compare to the all leather options earlier in the page.

Magic 8-ball was correct. All be in awe of Magic 8 ball.

I can confirm that the leather bits of the trim are as follows as my Cooper has black cloth/leather trim.

Front of lower seat squab on drivers and front passenger seats.
Side of Lower Seat Sqaub on Divers and front passengers seats.
Side of back Seat Sqab on Drivers and front Passenger seats.
Top of back seat sqaub on drivers and passengers seats.
Bulge in rear lower seat squab around seat belt sockets.
Middle section of rear back seat squab.
All Four headrests
Steering wheel rim
Gear Change knob.

The Handbrake gaitor, gearchange gaitor and pull handle grips on the doors look like leather at first sight but are in fact plastic "genuine imitation" leather.

Basically, as far as the front seats go, the bit where your bum sits is cloth but the all the outser edges are leather.

Hope this helps.
