The Versa is not new (2006/7), and several local operators such as GNE must have acquired examples, therefore why is Optare hawking it around?
ArrivaNorthEast had a demonstrator in 2008:- http://www.flickr.com/photos/emdjt42/451...6724137034
Was it not deemed worthy of ordering?

Are sales falling off and are they hoping to fill their order books before they discontinue it?
