I have just seen it out in service, and it looks a lot smarter than I remember it, so you are right, it will not need to be repainted any time soon. I am not sure that the colour is magenta tho', it looks a standard red to me.

I got it today on the 118, the interior reminds me of S-JUA and T-FGN DAF's apart from the seats on the rear wheel arch.

Is that the Arriva DLA's?

Yes apart from the seats, I only managed to get 4012 out of the Arriva vehicles since Bolton's seem to rarely escape school duties.

16949 it quite good, you can see some small signs of its previous rear exit door and the iBus system but apart from that it seems to be in great condition.

Most of the ex-London Tridents have those signs as well. Even first's 31929 has most of the iBus visible, I wouldn't be surprised if a London ticket machine was refitted that it would be fully operational.
