Autobiogs have alcantara or leather. Vogues have a woollen lining. I rather like the mouse fur.

Perhaps you are right Emperor the Alcantara does look good too, Its just that i have never had a leather head linning and it sounds good. Some might mistake it for plastic. |

A blind man perhaps. No mistaking leather if your eyes work. |

My L405 AB has leather headlining, I have not had any one comment that it looks like plastic. It's pretty obvious that it's leather. 2014 SDV8 Autobiography

My L322 AB SC has the stitched leather headlining, complete with rear vanity mirrors and lights etc. No one has ever really noticed it either!

Mouse fur looks immediately luxurious, impressive and warm. It is also great to touch. Leather looks great but not as warm. You also have to look closely to see what it is whereas mouse fur is very obvious. |

I agree, I think Alcantara is the better choice for headlining as you're only going to look at it, and it 'looks' more luxurious than leather. |

It also will not have the leather creak you get with the AB leather one. Discovery 4 HSE

Matter of taste. Personally, I ogle at the leather joint around my driver roof handle almost each time I enter the car and I smile to myself. That's enough for me. 2016 RR ATB (Kaikoura Stone w/Brogue/Ivory-Brogue) |

They're leather in my standard Vogue, and if not a good approximation! |

Never noticed any creaking from the Leather Headlining in my AB and if it ever needed to be I guess it'd wipe down better than Alcantara |
