The 6 Solo SRs are for King's Lynn apparently, no idea on the rest. No Scanias at all which is interesting.
Just found out the first deliveries of this order are E200MMCs 37431-9 which are for Stagecoach East at Kings Lynn for Coasthopper. The first was due today according to Steve Knight Media where this information was found.

All I'm aware of so far is 7x ADL Enviro200MMC and 8x Enviro400MMCs for Stagecoach Yorkshire - I assume for Barnsley.
Assume the new Enviro's due for Unibus at Leamington are in these totals.
Leamington are definitely due new Unibuses, wouldn't surprise me if Nuneaton depot got some nework E200MMC heaps for the 48 too.
Cambridge may be a contender given their P&R fleet is eight years old and the main E400 fleet is over 5 years old. Just throwing it out there.
As reported elsewhere, the first vehicles from the 2016 order have rolled off the production line.
These include:
E400MMC 10534/535 SN16 OMY/OMZ - first of 18 for MCSL's Gilmoss depot
SWB E200MMC 37431-433 SN16 OPV/OPW/OPX - first of 9 for Stagecoach East's Kings Lynn depot (the former Norfolk Green operation) - these carry Coasthopper livery & branding.
Some of the Yorkshire buses are,I understand,for Chesterfield,notably the midibuses. The double deckers are for Barnsley.

The deckers are for the 57/57a/59 in Barnsley I believe - either that or the 66 to replace the 59-plate E400s to go onto the Royston runs.
At least fifteen,possibly sixteen,MMC's are being delivered to Western and are being prepared at Kilmarnock. 10511-525,at least,are reported as being for them and 526 could also be for them. Manchester are reputedly getting a large amount of the order too.

10511-10525 for Glasgow and 10526-10533 for Aberdeen
Thanks for clearing this up.

8 E400MMCs for Leamington. Nothing new for Nuneaton.

No new buses for Cambridge in terms of E200 or E400.

Where are you getting this info from?

From a source at Stagecoach...
So is that all the Midlands are getting, 8 new E400S?

Could well be, in terms of deckers and singles. Don't know about anything else such as minibuses, although the 6 Solos are for King's Lynn so they won't be heading this way.
Makes sense. I bet Manchester are getting most of the order again as per usual!

Less than 20% of the double deck order is for Manchester so I wouldn't call that getting the most of the order.
Manchester are getting just under sixty of the Enviros.
10727-10733 for Leamington.

Any idea when this year they are due to arrive?
Rumours are saying October
Hull are getting 10734 to 10748 with Cheltenham getting 10749 to 10759. The latter are believed to be for the 94.
Can't remember which website I just found this on but this is where the remaining new buses are going:Note it lists 10749-10760 for Chester not Cheltenham
10655-10663 Barnsley
10667-10687 Oxford
10688-10697 Exeter
10698-10700 Winchester
10701-10725 Folkestone
10726-10733 Leamington
10734-10748 Hull
10749-10760 Chester
10761-10778 Aldershot
26063-26080 Slatyford
26081-26087 Chesterfield (now in service as of yesterday)
26088-26111 Porth
37440-37444 Rock Ferry
Edit:10749-10759 are for Cheltenham. Thanks
@Alex for the correction

Oh right. Chester have just got some new E200MMCs and Liverpool have some newish E400MMCs so didn't think that was true but thanks for the correction

We'll all find out as and when new vehicle orders are announced.

They've put in a bid for 25 Gold Spec single deckers for the 48,
however I must stress that this is
not solid confirmation that it will be happening, it has to go through whatever the processes are that the company has in place. It'll only be when the new order is announced that we'll find out if anything is on there. On that note, Nuneaton's union rep did attend a showcase of the new style SC Gold uniform which he showed me the photos of (I certainly like the looks of it), so they must be confident in the bid being accepted - again, this is no guarantee.
Stagecoach will announce the 2017/18 orders by the end of March at the latest,and probably much earlier than that.

How do you know they have asked for 25 gold spec single deckers?
Suspect there'll be gold MMCs on the X4 by 2018. X7 just might go gold too. Northampton route One Man/E200s are being replaced this year by MMCs???????????
Excited to hear 48 might be going gold.

Indeed so, that's why I had to make sure to stress in my original post that it's only a bid and no solid gold cert, otherwise there'd probably be people running around saying it's gospel and driving the management crazy ::)
We shall all find out what is actually going down in due course! :P
