They have indeed, and I believe it has been given the fleet number of 251. Credit where credit is due, Avon have done well to get this out so quickly. As it was only collected from Helms yesterday, so considering they have removed Helms vinyl's, done the destinations, put Avon logo's on the sides and got it out in service the very next day is pretty impressive! However, with this turn around being so quick, I can only assume that they are very low on buses at the minute...

Yes that'll be it. I saw it this morning and I wasn't impressed by the livery. I thought that Avon had changed theirs.
