Bit strange given they are being used on European runs that they are right hand drive.

Sorry, they are left-hand drive not right. I blame tiredness. Of course, the Barcelona-London service presently uses UK-based domestic-specification Elite Is
Tiredness is acceptable, my three kids and school holidays make me acutely aware!

LHD Van Hool Altano 55011-6 (HHY 177/180/187/191/195/198) have arrived at their originally intended home of Rugby depot having been replaced by LHD Van Hool Astromega 56001-9. 55011-6 are planned to go on the ME25 (London-Barcelona) once UK clearance and UK registraions etc are complete allowing Elite I 54212-9 to return to domestic work.
You could say about time, but 8 months after their replacement in Belgium, 55011-6 have finally gained their UK registrations:
55011: KX14HSV

55014: KX14HTV
