Also do we know if the ex-first stock will be getting refurbished interiors also? I'd imagine stagecoach will want to make them look less like their biggest competitors vehicles, particulary on routes to Manchester, Bolton and Leigh where First are still present.

Was definitely confusing see First-livered buses with Stagecoach logos in Manchester today. More so when a bus goes out of service and the First logo appears on the rear number display. Some reprogramming will be also needed soon.
