Default vRS Leather Seats?
Does the octy vRS have leather seats OR does it have leather-type-vinyl?

I only ask since I came across a post on aonther forum about the R32 golf saying that the supposedly leather seats actually weren't.

If they aren't what is best used to keep them in tip top condition?

Leather on the top... vinyl type stuff on the back/side

(I think)

ps. You can actually see the difference in the grain / feel of the standard seats in the daylight between the leather and the pvc

Trust a bloody Golf owner to decry a Skoda ..........just cos he has spent thousands more on his car than we have on our's ................ok they aren't all leather ... .............come on , what do you expect for the price we paid ...

Personally I use saddle soap ..........even on the non leather bits !.....................well it looks like leather to me ........

hello, seeing that you all having a seat conversation here i thought i would pick your brains! i have an Octy the leather bit is fine and easy to clean but what do you guys use for the centre pannels, they are a pain at times, get dirty quick (i have kids) and i dont want to scrub them or any thing as it will start to look naff. Any ideas?
