Quite surprised they've started painting the E200/E400MMC's when there is still a large number of E200/E300/NG & E400's still to be painted.
Looking at the fleet list on Bus Times the following are still in Beachball or other Non Standard Liveries:
39 - E400MMC's
15 - E400H's
29 - E400's
24 - ALX300's - Unsure as to how many of these will be repainted given there age.
16 - MAN/Transbus E300's
21 - E300 Gas
5 - Pointer Darts
38 - E200MMC's
29 - E200's
46 - MAN E200's - Highly doubt these will get repainted as I would expect these to be replaced in the near future due to poor reliability.
