Check for the soft padding. If it has one, then it's leather. You can also check that at http://service.citroen.com with the VIN code: insert VIN, then click 'Characteristics' -> Interior Fittings. The type of the steering wheel is listed there at the bottom of the list which opens.

Does it go on top of the existing or do you have to remove it?

I have a hideous thick sponge thing stuck on mine.

Seems to be a year thing rather than model range, I've seen Exclusive SEs with the fake leather.
