Looks like Angel green to me (wouldn't entirely surprise me if Angel is the next one to go roadstripe).
EDIT: Someone on another thread has said it's 6331; formerly Angel, X21 and X45/6/7.

A pointless initiative that aims to eliminate the need to own a car as you can get a bus to pick up a car in a uselessly limited handful of locations, or drive to catch a bus that might go somewhere near where you want to be, but you probably can't park your hire car anywhere near where it stops.

I'm looking at the locations and they are all located next to areas with extremely high bus frequencies - surely these are the areas we shouldn't be targeting?

Essentially creating a hub n spoke with all but one of the spokes being a bus.
Maybe realising the rest of the network isn't cracked up like its meant to be.

Surely the point would be to get the car to those then use the bus rather than the other way around.
