Default Just bought my first Jaguar!

I just purchased a white 1998 XJ8 with a cream interior. Seems to be very well taken care of and I think it's one of the classiest cars on the road. The leather is a little dried out, so I was wondering what you guys/gals would use to fix this.

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
Someone posted about a leather care product today in the detailing section.
You will find other products there also.

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

I would suggest you use a leather cleaner followed by a leather dressing made specifically for auto leather. Being in the UK, I don't know what is available in the US, but I have had good results with Xymol Leather Cleaner, followed by Autoglym Leather Balm. Autoglym also do a cleaner, but I have no experience of this. There are others, of course.
