To clean a cloth seat, you'd need to foam it. That'll take you up to about 5 minutes per seat, so you can imagine how long an entire bus would take.
I don't actually mind the eLeather, but I do think it takes a good 6 month or so to wear in. It's quite tough to sit on at first. If I could take my pick of a standard seating, it'd be the ones that Stagecoach have in their Enviros.
Agreed - I've always been impressed by how comfortable that seating is.
