Its been a quiet few weeks of new adverts on Manchester Metrolink but as May starts to come towards a close that has changed with not one but two new adverts seen. That includes an all new design for 3104<\/strong> whilst 3092<\/strong> has become the second tram to advertise Starling Bank.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

3104<\/strong> is now carrying a mainly red advert for Courvoisier, which is a premium French cognac produced in Jarnac. It is apparently famous as \u201cThe Cognac of Napoleon\u201d. The advert itself features a rather large bottle of the cognac and looks as if it could be aimed at those buying gifts for Father\u2019s Day with the slogan \u201cFor our Father Figures\u201d used.<\/p>\n

3104<\/strong> had been in fleet livery since March 2026 when it lost a short-lived advert for the MOBO Awards. It also previously advertised Manchester Airport (August-October 2025) and a partial ad for Singin\u2019 In the Rain (October-December 2025).<\/p>\n

A second new advert is on 3092<\/strong> which is the second tram to carry an identical advert for Starling Bank as that on 3101<\/strong>. Starling Bank have frequently had multiple adverts when they take out a contract and so it was a surprise when 3101<\/strong> was the sole tram, but this has now changed with 3092<\/strong> joining it.<\/p>\n

3092<\/strong> is no stranger to Starling Bank adverts either as it previously had one July-August 2022. That was actually its first ever advert, since then it has had another four with Primark, Cuervo Tradicional Tequilla, Euro 2028 and xtb all advertising on the tram.<\/p>\n
