But they will definitely fall off.  ;D


TVRs were designed and built in a shed in Blackpool. They're repairable.


Mercedes whole ethos is premium German engineering. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but somebody else paying the bills dramatically improves the experience.

Do all later Mercs have split leather on the drivers seats?  ???


Many of them are vinyl. Although Mercedes usually has a stupid name that makes it worth the money. If you're gullible enough to fall for marketing ::)
Whatever they have decided to call it, it still looks shit for a so called quality motor.

Artico Leather is the faux/veggie leather.

MB Tex always was/still is decent, wear resistant vinyl  :y

Real leather is also available. At a price.

If you have a modern Merc with cloth, it's either a truck/van or the first owner ordered a base model.

They do when the 'leather' is Artico .... it's what Merc call artificial leather - ie vinyl!

Manual RWD Estate in an acceptable colour, dark interior. And If I try hard enough I've probably got enough spares to up the power a bit  :D.
