As ugly as the streetlite. ...

And probably just as rubbish

Stay away from the Voith versions...that's all I say

CBW has other images of the Streetdeck, including one in silver with light/dark blue stripes.  This hyperlink has some images

Brighton & Hove have ordered 25 for their coastal route 12 to Eastbourne. These will be painted in two tones of green,
darker green lower panels, lighter green upper bodywork.
They will also have one table with facing seats on the top deck.

Heres some pictures of the actual vehicle. Forgot Euro Bus Expo was happening today.

Looks slightly better in real life. I like the wrap-around windscreen, but it all seems to remind me more of the Enviro 400 MMCs.

The first picture (Transbus one) is not a Streetdeck. It is a Gemini3 bodied Volvo B5TL

The Sapphire Streetdeck does look interesting from the pictures I've seen

Its the new Enviro 200 that's of more interest to me as its the single deck products from all companies that seem to be the weaker product, so hopefully the new one is a much higher quality product

I know now.  ;) I thought the panels nearer the rear were different, just never bothered to correct myself, I guess. Also, another difference was one has windows up the stairway, whereas the other doesn't.  :D

Nice pictures of the Streetdeck Tony - I quite like the design of them actually.

I actually like it, but the only thing I have picked up on is the Sapphire Logo on the offside (I know it is nothing to do with the design of the bus), I feel it should have been a bit smaller to not overlap the window. It would look a lot better that way I think.

I think the pre-production model looks exactly like a KMB?? Older tri axle E500.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

The first two were delivered yesterday.  The livery doesn't help!

That livery certainly doesn't do it any favours, but I personally think Wrightbus have ruined the Gemini double decker bodywork with the new style front
