Woolite is great for this as it's very gentle... dilute it in tepid water (1:20 is fine)
And it's a lot cheaper that many auto care products...

It's also good for removing some marks on the headliner and you can even use it to wipe down your dash and plastics

Want to keep my leather looking like new, what do you recommend? dont want a shiny look, just want something to protect it and keep it looking good for a long time.
Go to www.autopia.org you will get any and all your questions answered without the B/S.
Good luck

Products referred to at that website could be difficult to source in the OP's territory (UK).
