what have you tried?

try using dawn soap with warm water first
next, things like lexol or vinylx
you can also try some isoposal (sorry can't spell) alcohol, but I'd test it on a hidden section of the leather first
I've also read things like softscrub (w/o bleach) will work, but frankly I've never tried it becasue I won't let things designed to remove ring around the toilet near my leather

Softscrub will work, but be real careful as it contains abrasives that could damage the leather. I used it in a few spots and it removed stains that I thought would never come out. No harm to the leather, but did alter the texture a bit for a while. Just be careful when you use it.

Try this... Pristine Clean by Leatherique I've heard really good things about it. Their products are really good.

If you do use softscrub dont use the one with Bleach. Buy the lemon scent on and use a toothbrush. Use only once in a blue moon..

Well, these guys mean well, but do not do any of what they have suggested. The bit about the Lexol is fine, and the part about the Dawn soap is ok as well, but do not use dawn, use Ivory soap. If you want to avoid damage to your nice car, go here:

http://www.appearancegroup.com/online.htm

These people sell products used for cleaning the interior and exterior of business jets. On that page they have a Ink Pen Remover. It is 9 bucks, and will make you sing and dance once you see it work. If their products age good enough for a $40,000,000.00 Boieng Business Jet, then it is certainly good enough for anything that we own. Good luck.
