I think the problem there is - the E300s are the longer variation (12.8m I think). That means, to replace them with normal single deckers would either mean reducing capacity on the route or requiring more vehicles and modify the timetable to offer the same or an increased capacity. I doubt the 100 will ever be upgraded to E400 operation simply because it would reduce the number of routing options. Plus, it's then the question of where 27506-10 can be used when replaced off the 100.
