I think it was YK53 GXJ, was on service 2, spotted it in birkenhead before
I think otherwise (looks very odd):

Amazed it's still got it's luggage racks in there, surely common sense would be to remove them and put some seats in there?
Can't make my mind up what I think of that in the Stagecoach Livery, I don't know if it is simply the fact that I am not used to seeing a vehicle of that type or similar in that livery.
it would look better if they had not done around the front indicaters in blue & left it as white,would of also done the Wright logo in a different colour to make it stand out more,Im guessing it will have the luggage racks taken out if/when it gets stagecoach interior.Once it gets rid of all traces of firstbus & more buses get repainted, it will start to look more normal
I think the orange swoop at the back looks odd too,it looks like its been rushed a bit imo.
Dont stagecoach like vehicles with no manufacturers badge on them .
Noticed this in the new timetable for the 471/472:
"Stagecoach are currently reviewing this agreement and have told us that
they may make changes in the future. Right now, there’s no changes
planned, but we’ll let you know if any changes are going to take place."

that looks nice, far better than the recent repaint
Agreed the bus looks half finished without the front bit.
