Lack of Leather on sides of Seats Cheap MB
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...5e89af9099.png
Any one notice the feeling of cheap cloth close to the bottom sides of the seats where the Leather ends. I noticed it once while getting in and out of the car one day and now it really bothers me. I realize they have to use it for the seat covers but would it have killed Mercedes to add another couple inches of leather? |
Lol yeah, I've noticed it too. Typically even if you have actual leather seats, often side/lower parts like that will be vinyl and on previous bmw/audi/vw that I've had over time these areas crack. Maybe that's why they went that route.

No big deal from my perspective. I suspect the sides are not leather anyway ... just the seat surfaces. I really do not notice it but I am sure it is a common approach used by most manufacturers..

Are your seats elevated to the highest setting ? Maybe I don't see it because I don't
need my seats that high up. |

That's the part of the seat that contacts the height adjust. The cheap way out would have been to wrap the entire seat in leather and ignore the contact.

ok so I was right. when elevated to sit higher you can see it.
If at the lowest setting you can barely even see it. |

They are not being cheap. Leather against the plastic seat base would make creaking sounds as you move around in the seat. They know what they're doing.
