	It's actually alcantara. I would like to keep it original, but the front covers are pretty well worn and finding better replacements has proved (so far) more or less impossible. May have to fit the leather set I have lying around.

	Alacantra eh? Shame to lose it but worn seats do detract a little.

	Aside from the turd corner-shop-owner chrome arches, it is a thing of beauty. I'm thinking one of these barges (or a 7-series or XJ40) will be pretty high on the list 'next time around'.
