Are these identical to the West Midlands versions? I'd imagine they were ordered before the sale, or not?

In Xplore Dundee's latest post, it appears their fleet numbers are in the 8500 range (with 8502 pictured)

Nearly identical except they have side mirrors rather than cameras.

When Xplore Dundee was sold, it was mentioned that the E400mmcs were on long term lease to McGill's. Are they due to return to NX at some point or has McGill's purchased them now?

Some are leased, but the current agreement runs until 2030 when the West Midlands is due to be fully diesel

The question was are some of Dundee's E400MMCs leased to them by NX and will they return to the West Midlands. My answer is yes, some are leased, but the lease agreement runs past 2030 and by then the West Midlands will be zero emissions so they are unlikely to return
