Petrol cars, water, and why my shoes are on the radiator : (

I'm after the nylon stuff for it's elongation properties, most cheap rope is ployprop.

I would say most of what I have is poly. The blue stuff from the agri merchants is Nylon, I'm fairly sure of that. I find the better nylon stuff ties easier. The knots seem to stay better, and its easier to tighten.

Nylon is soft to the touch and usually more flexible than polyprop.

I cant remember the cost off the top of my head - I will ring them on Monday and find out if you like. It is, as you quite rightly say, quite soft to handle. It was also white when new although is now more of a brown colour having been used in the mud a few times.
