40 kWh Zoe (but no CCS, so a PITA to do trips in)

The automotive equivalent of white dog poo...

What's the cloth made out of? Man-made fabrics?

I'm not a physicist or electrical engineer, bit I'm pretty sure it's you, or rather the clothes you wear, and the seat material. You inevitably slide across the seat when you get out. If you have certain man-made materials in the thing covering your bum, you rub the two surfaces together...
