E60 Leather?

[TheAngryDog]

What is the difference between full and extended leather? How can I tell what mine has? My car also has an alcantara head lining which is very nice.

The full leather option includes the dashboard and door caps covered in cowhide, which the extended leather doesn't have. I believe the alcantara roof lining was a separate option, but virtually all cars with the full leather also had the roof lining option spec'd, from what I understand.

Thanks. My dash is and door card tops are covered in leather so looks like I have full then!

Mine had the alcantara roof lining and full leather dash, door tops, looked great.

The alcantara headlining was a separate option but included as part of the full leather option.
Congrats on the purchase btw!

That's a nice bonus - the full leather makes the cab feel so much nicer . It was a £5k+ option IIRC

This is how you tell if your 'leather' is genuine, from my company website
