I use microfibre cloths rather than the thin ones they supply. The sponge is OK for applying the foam cleaner, but you'll need to wipe it off as that removes the dirt from the seat and you'll also need cloths for the other two bottles. If the seats are really dirty, then a leather brush agitates the foam nicely and gives a deeper clean.

I use this one, it's only £5

The colourlock cleaning sets are supposed to be pretty good as well. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

The brush I linked to is also very good for lifting the pile and making the suedecloth headlining look like new again. Don't use the same one as use on the leather seats though. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

Hi again.

Got the car back today.

Most of my list has been done but it will go back next week for a few more items - hopefully completed on the same day.

As mentioned before it had a couple of non dealer basic oil services in a main dealer two year gap.

My JLR specialist has recommended catching up on the following missed scheduled service items which I plan to do next week:

1) Renewal of transfer box oil
2) Renewal of locking differential oil
3) Air con service
4) Brake fluid change
5) Renewal of all brake flex hoses

Hopefully then everything will be up to date! It's only just gone over 24,000 miles so should be tip top from then.

Here are some interior shots - as the car is now - I have newly arrived cleaning products (thanks for the tips Martin2 and others) to give it a going over in due course:

Looks really good as it is! I'll be interested to see the 'after' pictures when you've given the leather a good clean.

I hope you're pleased with the results  MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

What a great looking car - but I may be a bit biased

What a lovely motor. Love the colour, but I have to add that the one I have just bought is the same. Sadly couldn’t find a good Autobiography, so ended up with an SE. It hasn’t left the driveway yet, waiting to tax it in September. Still very much in learning mode.

Welcome and sure your father would be extremely pleased you are looking after it for him

The oils and fluids are an easy DIY job and while being cheaper than letting a garage carry out the work it also allows you to start to get to know your car and the associated engineering.

That is a nice looking car 👍
