It might also be to do with VIN etc. I'm not sure exactly which was wrong, but I remember that many months (possibly a couple of years) after Manchester's 19478-80 entered service, they all had to change registrations.

The fleet number is of no interest to the DVLA/VOSA. Historically, many buses in Liverpool had their fleet numbers changed when newer buses were introduced into the fleet. Until Stagecoach introduced a national fleet numbering policy, buses frequently changed numbers when transferred into other areas as still happens with Arriva.
