One of the worst for seats is the S1 branded Merit where the seats have a different moquette from what GNE have as standard and some of the seats have had to be replaced so you have a bit of a mix match of diiferent moquette's.
Never been on it, or can't remember being on it.
Never had the fancy to go on a trip around the Metro since it was allocated to the S1 either
That sort of issue was pretty common on vehicles across T&W post 1986. The old TWPTE seats were often replaced by all sorts of weird and wonderful combinations.
Ditto when the Nationals were re-engined, they ended up with plasticy covered seats, in the Wear Buses livery/colours. Again, replaced with different types of covers.
