Does my Butt area look Saggy ?
D3 is exactly 2 years old today!!
I've done 65k so far with another year left on the warranty.
I'm 14 stone and my drivers seat is showing some signs of wear.
Does my Butt area look too Saggy??
Or is this normally to be expected on a leather interior?
Don't want to make a of myself by pushing the dealer for a warranty claim!

My cloth seat looks like this after 2 years and the exit side is wearing too now
It really is crap material.

I don't think it is the mileage that makes such a difference as the number of times you get in and out. Have you treated the leather much to keep it supple? That should prevent the cracking. If you are unhappy speak to your dealer.DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

My passenger side is like that but my drivers side is fine. I am going to report it next time it is in - if for no other reason than to make SHMBO feel better

It's all to do with surface area reducing pressure

Mine has now done 77k and looks better than that in fact the seat looks brand new. But then again I am 6ft 2" and only weigh 10½ stone In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

I think your butt looks saggier than mine. Although mine is ebony leather and does not show the wear as much.
