When Peter Huntley was here, all the branded vehicles had a white curve on them from the front wheel arch - this is no different.
I would say it does.
Whoever the operator, when you're spending time, effort and money on a design - then the basic fundamental is 'consistency'.
Whether that's consistent angles, widths, patterns, logo placement or whatever else.
Operators surely want some sort of identity that portrays them in a particular light.
If the livery doesn't give off the impression of consistency, then it doesn't really set the tone for any other consistency across the rest of the business imo.
