Default YuK!

Got back from our trip and found this!


Car has been kept outside since I bought it almost 5 years ago. Never seen this before.







Its all over the leather. Seats, Door Cards, Steering wheel etc. Fortunately the Alcantara is ok!

The foot well carpets are damp so I'm guessing the drains blocked while I was away. Funny thing is the mold is dry and is coming off the seats well. Door cards are a bit stained though. Maybe a trip to Eaglescliffe is in order!
