Some of those will be regulars in the London area, as the 715 is due to be the recipient of some of those long Enviro200 MMCs

Is there a reason why Stagecoach have only applied their revised livery to Enviro 200 MMC & 400 MMC vehicles? Refurbished older vehicles have not been changed, while other new vehicle types such as the brand new Streetlites still have the older version of the livery.
