The new Stagecoach liveries and brand have been officially revealed today
https://m.stagecoach.com/media/news-releases/2020/2020-01-30.aspx
Note the livery shown on the E400 appears to be a special livery with all three colours on it.
Azure Blue will be for local
Amber yellow for longer distance
Ocean green for specialist - P&Rs, Busway etc
I like the idea of the three liveries and I like the colours chosen. One downside is the large amount of white, especially on the lower panels. Here in the West Midlands we all know what the fleet will end up looking like!
I'll review the Emperor's new clothes in two words. One is 'awful', whilst the first one begins with a 'F' ....
Just seen the new livery on 15720. Can't say I'm a fan of it if I'm being honest.
I guess this is why there are countless numbers of Stagecoach buses driving around Cambridgeshire in a plain lime green colour? They were due for repainting and got caught out by COVID.

Personal opinion. It looks just as awful in real life as it does in that photo.
Still not seen it in the flesh yet. Started off with a dislike for it but it's growing on me. Don't like the different versions of the front end on the E400s. Should be the same nationwide, it's like they are trying to make every bus look similar to the MMCs with the black headlights. But Some have the black lights, some blue, then some have the lower grille blue, then some white. Saw this picture (attached) yesterday of a Bluebird E400 and this is the best version of the new livery, how the E400s usually look in the beachball livery
I do like the new long distance yellow livery maybe more than the standard version
Magic bus livery is good, but the yellow front logo is terrible and personally should be white, as the side logo is blue on white so it should be reverse of that
