Leatherette should still be not good enough to fool anyone.

You also have the upgraded A/C system.
Ya know, you can call a MINI dealer and give them the last 7 digits of the VIN and they'll be able to tell you all about what's in your MINI.

I'm not sure on a 2006, but on the 2009, it's leather if you have a lumbar support adjustment ****. No ****, then it's leatherette!

If the "accident" looks like dried potato flakes the next morning,...its leather!

I just bought my 2006 mini base model and wanted to know if this is leather or leatherette?
