Well finally got round to polishing..

few things to sort, the interior is sandstone leather and is absolutely filthy, i have a bar of Vanish ready so will get to work ion it as soon as time allows..

Need a new steering wheel as the one in the car is well beyond cleaning...
it also has a rip in it...

Go into a chemist and ask for pure alcohol, great for cleaning leather, then you just need to add the conditioner

I really do not know how someone can let a car get into such a state and not do anything about it..

but least ill get it all cleaned up as to how it should be..

it will take time, with having a 4 year old and 3 month old at home, time is precious....
