I've got beige leather in the X6 so this may be just what I need too.  Autoglym was fine on the black, but I don't know what it's like for staining on cream so have been a bit wary so far......just in case.  I'm sure the AG stuff will be fine too though.

By AG you mean the car care products that they have in the dealerships?

Interestingly, the brush that Furniture Clinic sell specifically for the job is very harsh. I decided not to use it and get something softer. I managed to clean my cream leather, very much to schaffs standard, with just the little white sponge they send with the kit.

I actually use the Furniture Clinic leather cream as well on the basis that they seem to know what they are doing with leather cleaning products. It's that lovely new" leather smell and you use very little to do the whole job.
