700 does look impressive in the new livery - certainly better than it has been over the last few years in plain white.

700 is certainly interesting. Too much purple on the ends, or too much white in the middle?
Personally, I think it just needs the swoops "reflected" on the blank panelling between decks, and a purple roof. That way you get the nice modern livery, while adapting it to better suit the double deck body, just like the old pre-NBC double deck buses used to have a band around the bus just above lower deck windows. It'd keep it nice and simple, while making it more pleasing, breaking up the large spaces.
