What Happend at Connolly ?
 
I read some where that the company went out of business? Does anyone know anything about this? I thought they seemed to be doing well?:confused:

I have no idea about Conolly, but Roser, the company which made the good old leather for our Mercedes (and the old Porsche, btw) went out of business years ago.

The mayority of todays leather for Mercedes is produced in South Africa. It is a rumor that the leather is produced from plastic cows.

Kind regards
Eberhard
