Yep, just be wary of die transfer from jeans

I've got light coloured interior in mine, 18 months in & no issues Thumbs Up
You do get some slight transfer from jeans, this comes off easy enough though with baby wipes or a proper clean. 2011 (MY12) 4.4 TDV8 Vogue

My first one was dark - I was very skeptical about a light interior, but have had Ivory for 6 years or so now with no issues whatsoever Thumbs Up

I've always had light interiors in my various Freelanders, Range Rover Sports and now FFRR. They look better, especially with dark bodywork and the inside is brighter. Never had a problem keeping them clean, but I don't have children.... Treat them with care, clean regularly (I use Autoglym leather cleaner and conditioner, plus leather wipes.) Never had a problem with dye from jeans etc. I'd never have a FFRR with a black interior!

Ivory is very simple to keep clan! If i travel a lot, expecially with blu pants, seats get dark, then just use specific products, and they immediatly shine! Always loved ivory interior, but now i like all black "squared" leather seats like overfinch or lamborghini. They're perfect for a modern supercar

Only bit which gets grubby is the parcel shelf, which apparently can be jet washed! Haven't tried yet though.

The rest seems pretty easy to keep clean Thumbs Up There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
