I mean they're definitely an upgrade on the Versas. The ex-first ones from GNW seem to have much better leg room than the GNE spec'd ones.
It is however impressive that they managed to reupholster the bus, yet miss all the GNW branding. The cove panelling is still carrying info about Go North West performance and fares, which I imagine is of little use to most people in Sunderland.
