Was the same one, by all accounts 762 should be entering service tomorrow
What's the interior like on them?

Awful apparently, has the same seats as Solo's 2601/2/3 & GNE 721 but in e-leather
0762 has entered service at Darlington and was on X66/X67 but since been taken off
0762 was on the x27 yesterday
Is there a reason they have a 3 digit fleet number rather than a 4 digit number?

Just the inherited fleet number from Arriva Yorkshire/Yorkshire Tiger. If it fits with the existing numbering without clashing then I can't see a reason to change it.
