Welcome! And we all know one of the first things you'll do is sit in it, revving the engine, and be bowled over the wonderful V8S sound. We've all done it. I still do it now, and I've had mine 10 years laugh It works best if there is wall either side of your drive laughlaugh

Is yours the Colchester one?

Looks like the twin of mine - only collected it 2 weeks ago myself

Lots of leather cleaning to do. What is the best stuff to use.

There are lots of proprietary chemicals available. Many people have used stuff from the The Furniture Clinic. As it's a nice sunny day you could try warm soapy water on a sponge and a bit of elbow grease first. If the seats aren't too dirty that may be enough. Then finish with some leather cream. Your local supermarket will sell Lord Sheraton Leather Balsam. I've used this stuff for years.
