I use the National Express 2 with my student card to travel to Manchester. They offer excellent value for money with a return ticket only costing me £12 from my home in Milton Keynes to Manchester. The coaches are always modern and clean, you can eat while traveling and you also get a guaranteed seat unlike with trains. The new Manchester terminal has also just been refitted, so it's very smart.
On a few trips we have sometimes got the new leather seated, extra legroom buses with air con. The coaches are very punctual, so make sure your on time. I have missed my coach once, but all I needed to do was show my ticket to the ticket-man and he changed me onto a slightly later bus journey. I am not sure the local train service would be so accommodating. If your a student then I would definitely recommend this service, they offer great prices especially for students.
Some of my friends have recommended MegaBus and some of the low coast airlines as the cheapest way of inter city travel. But as I live in Milton Keynes these options are not really a viable means of travel. But I would certainly look into them if I lived in London and was traveling to Manchester.
