When are the first refurbished Great Western High Speed Train coaches due to enter service?

I know the first set is at Bombardier - but when is it due back? Last I heard was October.

Answers:
They are due to run trials of the refurbished HST's on december between London and Cardiff.
If the tests are successful, the trains should be in service by May 2007.
Three are already in service, 1 buffet car, 1 first and 1 standard (with guard/cycle area).

Out of interest, the first Class 166 Turbos are now running in the new "scribble" livery (or neon as FGW call it) across the Thames Valley Region.
They are already in service, I went to the launch day on April 3rd 2006 (I think that was the date) and this was the day that they were launched.
