Thanks To Callum Connor from the UK Bus & Coach Enthusiasts Group on Facebook Route 383 is getting a "transformation" in partnership with TfL & UNO. Official Launch Ceremony will be on the 20th September in Friary Park. (Also to note that this isn't even the finished product apparently) Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted

You beat me to it here is the original tweet I like the grey grab poles, they actually fit in well with the moquette and stray from SB and CT+ which use the same grab pole color.

Did anyone else notice they have chosen different disabled blue logos on the front of the two buses, with wheelchairs pointing different directions, clearly someone is careless as supposed to point towards the doors so one is suggesting go around to drivers side to get in.

The front blindbox glass needs sorting out, I hate provincial glass spec as it masks out a lot of the London blinds.

Ill say it again, newest London buses (*purely in terms of their age*) to get a refurbishment Will be a bit of a waste if they lose the route in a couple of years!

(Also to note that this isn't even the finished product apparently) Must say I'm impressed although that side view, to me, makes the bus look more like an MCV! As has already been pointed out, shame about that blind masking though...

Are you sure these 16 reg MMC's have been refurbished as I can't see that being the case personally.
