I'll doubt we'll see any new heritage repaints, I don't think it's high on the priority list one would of thought

I believe as the new buses are leased there not allowed any special liverys hance why cv has a E200 repainted

AG 6148 is in paint and their Birmingham Corporation liveried 4651 hasn't got long left.

Not saying it's likely to happen though.

Maybe they could do future heritage repaints in a single colour to save money? BCT or WMPTE ones in just all-over cream for example?

Can't see the point of a new heritage as it wouldn't be the same can't beat a good old bus

Donate the money for the repaint if it is required.

6148 is being refurbished for bus driver of the year in Blackpool on 1st September. We want to enter a bus in excellent condition but can't use an electric.

As grey is fleet livery, I'd say that was a given.
