We may get the new generation Enviro400 then.
Wonder why the shift to Alexander Dennis products? Arriva it would appear are a staunch Wright/VDL customer. And it may mean nothing but isn't the Stagecoach chairman also part owner of Alexander Dennis? Hence why Alexander Dennis products account for 85% of Stagecoaches recent 568 vehicle order.

Apparently Wrightbus are going to stop offering Gemini bodywork on the DB300 which is why current and future orders are for enviro 400's. Too be honest i also prefer the Gemini bodywork and Wrightbus in general compared to Alexander Dennis still at least its better than the current B7TL alx400's that are currently running Southport's 375/385 and Speke's 86.
