I recently purchased a 2001 Vanden Plas with 54000 kilometres on it, and I would appreciate some tips on caring for the gorgeous wood trim and leather. Many Thanks.

I have used Connolly's hide food once a year for the last 40 years on my S-Type and the seats are as good as new.
A UK web site is below but I am sure you can get it in Canada

The wood is slightly more difficult as what you are really protecting is the lacquer that protects the wood! I use a beeswax polish, but the only real way to keep it looking gorgeous is to keep the sun off it. If you get a lot sun were you live then use blinds on the windows when you park.
