Did someone forget to paint that front grill?
Will reserve judgement until they've finished it off.

Hmmmmm not sure about the livery tbh,the red seems too red,possibly should of been a darker shade,maybe even maroon

Has to be worst version so far, hopefully once its branded it might look better.

Same as the front of the C&Cs, no? 

Smart enough as a livery design, just not a huge fan of that red on silver front section. Looks a bit tacky imo.

Agreed - the colours clash far too much for my liking, did they got some of Stagecoach's new coach livery paint on the cheap?

Also here’s 653, it’s the only one being done for now from what Dan has stated on Twitter.

“It’s just a refresh of our Peterlee local brand - this bus was visiting Saltmeadows for some body repairs so we’ve painted it while it was there. The others won’t follow for a little while longer (hence no branding for the time being)”

Will this eventually become the new indigo livery? Will washingtons solos be redone at some point as well.

I like that a lot.

According to the GNE fleet allocation PDF, only Red Kite Streetlites left to do is 5416 and 5418... wonder what they'll repaint after the Streetlites?

Little Bishop

Sounds like a euphemism 

Bishop Indigo

Which sounds like a rather nasty New Zealand red wine

What's up with 6305, according to Bus Times it hasn't been out for over a month now and has been repainted into X5/X15 livery. Surely it doesn't take that long for a repaint!

The StreetDecks are known to be terribly unreliable so that doesn't surprise me

Trying not to go off topic, but yea the 16 plates weren't the best. 67 plate onwards I've found very reliable and spot on
