It is fine for newer Volvo leather interiors.
Just a word though, clean the dressing off every once in awhile. They do allow some build up of soil, seems to work almost like an oil, given some time.
We have seen many vehicles where the leather or vinyl looked great, were dressed regularly, but when properly cleaned-- lots of soil will building up and being hidden by the weekly application of PDMS dressings.
The cleaning towels turned an ugly dirty color. Was the build-up of soil and dressings.

Ron is right about build-up of product.
A month ago, after receiving a bottle of EF Spot Remover, I tried it on my leather, particularly the steering wheel, which CMA suggests.
I thought my leather was already clean, but I went through four cheap terry towels on my steering wheel alone, and all ended up a gross brown color before hitting the trash. I wasn't even going to try to wash that crap out!

Seymour, which vinyl protectant were you using that had this brown buildup? Were you using the 303?
With regards to the question in the first post in the thread, using 303 on your seats every 2 or 3 weeks is fine. Just make sure to use a damp cloth to buff out any residue and to help remove some of the slippery feel that all vinyl dressing products tend to leave. Laters.

voiture impressionnante (I cheated w/Babelfish :wink
When will the U.S. take delivery of this model? I logged in fully anticipating (hoping?) a classic Scirocco (gen I or II). Though a surprise, it was a pleasant one.
f?licitations on the vehicle, and perhaps you could follow with some interior shots and a review of your driving/handling impressions.

This car is not coming to the US, too much competition for the GTI. Which sucks as it's a gorgeous car. Nice job.

I know that was the sentiment of VWoA, but I thought I understood that the final decision would be coming from VW world HQ.
