Thanks for all the comments.
For those concerned about the white leather, I’m not worried at all. I have white leather in my Jag. Had a Gtechniq ceramic coating outside and leather coating inside since new 45k miles ago. Both have a 7 year guarantee. Car is Still as good as new. Dye does transfer, but just wipes off with leather cleaning wipes and the paintwork still looks like a Mirror. The Z4 is booked in for the same treatments next week.

Great to see someone doing the necessary protection early on before it gets too late.Coops wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2020 5:33 pm Thanks for all the comments.

I'm surprised, but I actually quite like the white on white. Black alloys would really finish it off.

That’s a brave choice without seeing the combination together, but it really really works, good choice girl

Ha ha - we've just come through the peaks (over the Snake Pass) on our way back from Chester. She let me have a play and if you looked carefully, you'd have seen her in the passenger seat (so I couldn't have a proper play!) - were you per chance in a red one going in the opposite direction?

Looking very nice - congrats on the new toy. I have to agree I would be worried about the white leather, even with the treatment, but it sounds like you've been down this path before so know what you're doing

Curious what leather coating you have used? I'm love the look of white leather but since I often wear blue jeans, I'm concerned about dye transfer.

It's from Gtechniq - had it done at the same time as the ceramic coating (they also do glass and alloy wheel protection, although not had that done so can't vouch for how good it is. Dye transfer happens no matter what seat colour you have, it's just that it shows up on the white.Chabu wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2020 1:08 am Curious what leather coating you have used?
