Half/full leather

[davetherave1970]

Hi all

Can someone tell me what isn't leather in a half leather spec Cerb?

Thanks in advance.

I may be wrong but I think it's easier to say what is leather.

Correct as necessary:

Steering Wheel
Perforated bits on centre tunnel
gaiters for handbrake/gearstick
centre bits of seat base and back (the side you sit on)


a lot of the rest is quite a good fake.

I didn't really notice till I took a good look.

There was a thread a while ago that said what was what but my connection is too slow just now to start searching.

I believe on a half-hide car the leather will only be on the seats & steering wheel.

Lots of variations. Basically if you're talking carpet (hessian) versus leather and fake leather, a half hide car has carpet on the door inserts and rear parcel shelf.

Not really much in it and a lot of people now seem to be changing these small bits of carpet for leather once they've bought.

Have a look here

for a bit of talk about what is/isn't.

Not quite. A full leather can have carpet door inserts and rear parcel shelf, as these were additional options above the full leather option. i.e. Totally full leather

Mine has some 'suede-like' stuff where I saw hessian in some cars I looked at (door panels, rear shelf, etc.). Does this give any clues?

Dont want to slate tvr but theres probably a lot of us out there that thought our chosen car would be full leather. That was before we ever looked at one, Then you realise its not really what you thought. But who cares!!!

The cows do. But then I'm sure they'd rather adorn the interior of a Cerbera than be a lard arse's posing pouch.
