Leather care for cloth/leather seats?

I got the Rooster Red/black cloth/leather seats in my MINI because they look awesome, and I'd like to keep them that way. I've seen what kinds of nasty things can happen to neglected leather (beige interior on a seven year old BMW that had obviously never been cared for at all), so I'd like to keep the small amount of leather that I do have looking nice. No cracking, or color fading please!

I do have some Meguiar's Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner, but based on results from the aforementioned BMW they don't really do a whole lot. (That could very well have something to do with the fact that they sat unused in an unheated garage for three years, and so froze, unfroze and separated all to heck and back.)

I still have my DP coupon code to use this month, and I see they've got a rather full spectrum of products from the Prima Nourish to the ($$$) Leatherique. I'm not afraid to spend money if it's worth it, but I'm not really sure what I need since the majority of my seats are cloth. The leather is mostly just an accent. I definitely want something that's not going to negatively affect the color in any way.

Oh great Detailing Masters, I am in need of your learnings badly!
