Leather or Interlagos Cloth?

[Nardi330]

I would not have got leather if I was expecting small children.

Actually i got leather becos of the kids. so much easier to clean than cloth.

Always been FOR leather...

But... in a GTI it seems a bit plain.. in a MK5 anyways.. Still a tough call.
Interlargos in a MK5 might just win for me..

Interlargos in MK6 is just so sexy and wins hands down IMHO.

Like others have said, the cloth is sportier in an GTI and breaks up the cabin a little, bit less boring to look at. But in a non GTI... Leather for sure.

i'd go for Interlargos in Mk6 becos of the red stitches. i don't understand why they don't do them on the leather to match the steering wheel and gear boot.

My R32 is 2.5 years old, and 40,000 kms. It has the latte leather. We take good care of it, and it still looks brand new.

I looked into another R32 at the dealers just recently, and with half the miles the leather was stuffed. I've had leather in a number of cars over the years, and with careful cleaning and conditioning, it has always lasted.

I am disappointed with the colour range VAG offer. In the next couple of months I'm going to order a new Tiguan, and the colour choice for the leather (and, come to think of it, the paint) is underwhelming. I'd have the latte again if I could, but the choice is charcoal or beige. I cannot, for the life of me, work out why so many manufacturers think that black interiors are a good idea in Australia.
