It looks better than the plain double-decker in Derby. The lines behind the driver and website to some extent provide some relief. I just wish they had emulated First and put the area on the side.

The vehicle looks refurbished too.

In that case buses in this livery ought to run on routes to Liverpool Airport! Laugh

Well - the three Gemini 2s dedicated to route 500 are in the same base colour as the new livery...
New deliveries have come in the new livery: new Sapphire Enviro 400 MMCs for routes 320 (Rickmansworth - Watford - Hemel Hempstead) and route 700 (Bluewater - Medway Towns), as well as some standard Enviro 400 MMCs for Liverpool, mainly intended for route 55 if I am correct?
Finally we see some standard Enviro 200 MMCs for route 82 (Maidstone - Park Wood).
Worth noting is the use of white LED displays on routes 82, 320 and 800 with the orange displays on route 55.
EDIT: Enviro 200 MMCs are being used on other routes in the area, not just the 82.

82 Maidstone is sapphire. Sapphire buses have white front destys, orange side and rear so that's no surprise.
320 and 700 or 800 is interesting though, it's not sapphire.

The 82 is not Sapphire the E200MMCs are in the 'new' Standard livery but have with White LED destinations.

My bad, mis read something somewhere
For a big company the new livery is absolutely dire. All over white would look better.
I really dislike the new livery, i keep thinking sponsored by Man City when i see a vehicle in the new livery, feels like the livery has been done on the cheap.
