I did use tanners preserve on a Cosworth interior,but i think the Gliptone has given better results.

Gliptone too. It wont work wonders if the leather is really grubby and cracked but it will get rid of the worst. If too far gone you will really need to re dye.

I have used Gliptone and then scuffmaster to redo my seats. the website is liquidleather.com. They match the colour for you from there extensive database. My seats looked brand new afterwards. I would recommend that yo follow the instructions for cleaning and conditioning exactly. They also do a leather filler if there are serious cracks in the leather.

Alex, I've used Gliptone for everything from touching in slight scuffs to complete colour changes.
Preparation and patience are needed, but it is pretty good stuff.
I'm sure you can get a complete kit with the cleaner, feed and colour wash

You would seriously be surprised how good your seats will look after washing them and reconditioning them with Gliptone. The scuff master is only really used when they are worn and or cracked and need to be recoloured. Interesting to see if Bhups seats had scuff master put on.
