ambla/ leather confusion

[gosnell]

If a car has leather seats, is that the whole of the seat pad leather or is it as mine appears to be with only the centre panel on the seat and the back in leather. apart from the centre panels which look like leather the remainder is ambla.

Indeed only the facings are leather, the rest plastic, as are the door bins, door cards etc. Ambla actually makes for a very hardwearing interior, unlike the leather that cracks and shrinks causing wavy piping syndrome. But leather feels and smells good.

IF it was DFS they'd call it "leather match" or " faux leather"

I thought they used vynil cloth or leatherette as some call it, not plastic! :wink:
