Which MCV evolution they have a signature branded one and there is a diamond 'blue' livery one at both Redditch and Tividale.
Not sure which enviro 200 you mean if it is the demostrator it was out on the 4 this evening if you mean the diamond 'blue' livery one it was on the 4 yesterday.

What makes the MCV evolution on dart chassis better than the sold ones?

Or the answer to the original question could be nothing as some ones on dart chassis were also sold.....
