Thanks - this didn't do the trick unfortunately. I think the cracks and the use of a dark demin over time have caused the issue.

Are Oxford, Blenheim and Premium not the three qualities of leather used in the Range Rovers, rather than colour shades?

If the products you are looking at are slightly different depending on the type of leather finish and you want to be sure then if you get hold of a copy of the data sheet for your vehicle it will confirm which leather is used on your seats.

I have a feeling you might be right but Colourlock haven't come back to me on this. I also spoke with the dealer who supplied the car and they didn't know one way or the other. The car is ivory with perforated semi-aniline leather - it makes sense the above are different leathers. I think the Oxford is normally on a Vogue or Vogue SE. But the other 2 are hard to fatham...

Do you have a view?

Thanks so much

United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Westminster 4.4 V8 Santorini Black

According to the sales brochure I have, my 2012 Westminster has Oxford leather seats in ivory, with the dash topper in Blenheim finish (in my case black).

The brochure also covers the Autobiography model which is says that came with 'perforated semi-aniline leather' on the seats which seems to tie-in with your description and I would therefore presume that this is what is being referred to as 'premium' by Colourlock.

I hope that helps.

Warm water, a toothbrush, micro fibre cloth and baking soda !
Lots of work but it'll work a treat.
