Nope.. definitely the correct colour, from other pictures - this flikr user's pictures always slightly alter the colours, looking through their other photos.
South east are actually fairly competent when it comes to vehicle presentation, unlike some areas. **cough cough** Inverness **cough cough**
Some cough you got their! Very valid point. I don't know why their are a few different variations of the Current Livery on Vehicles through the UK. I like the look of the Logo on Stagecoach London Buses. Can't wait to see a Caetano Levante in the Yellow and Gold Livery.
I know this was a few Years back but the Stagecoach West Caetano Levantes that spent a short time on the X77 (Glasgow to Ayr via Prestwick)... did they go to National Express? Haven't heard what happened to them.

I've just seen this and I know this isn't anything to do with Livery but with the new Interior's being Grey and Blue and upon seeing this pic and I took a closer look just to be sure but could this Vehicle belonged to First? I've never seen any Stagecoach Vehicle with them coloured Poles unless it transferred from a different Operator like First. As I know First had them Poles.

They wouldn't have gone to NatEx, they would have been from them or used to be used on one of their services. Scania and Volvo Caetano Levantes were all built for NatEx use. The Mercedes Benz versions were for private use, of which Stagecoach don't use

How is the livery actually being applied? Is it entirely paint, a painted base with the coloured bits in vinyl, an all-over vinyl wrap or something different?
(I assume the logos and text are all vinyl decals anyway)
Hopefully this may be of use to some of you, this afternoon I added a list to my website of all the vehicles in each region carrying all of the new livery schemes. https://fleetreport.co.uk/latest-news/8th-january-2021

Just to note for Stagecoach Bluebird all depots do have a repainted vehicle, however vehicles within Aberdeenshire (Aberdeen, Stonehaven & Insch depots) frequently rotate. Insch have 19374, 47490 & 47875 in the new livery. Additionally missing from your list is E200 36033 which was Elgin's first repaint last year. Stagecoach Highlands 53616-618 are B9Rs rather than B13Rs.
A full list of repaints correct as of 08/01/2021 for Bluebird as is as follows.

Many thanks for the corrections Jordan, very much appreciated. Having to trawl through every operation of Stagecoach and its repaints I was bound to miss some

No problem, i've generally been keeping on top of the Bluebird and Highland pages on Bustimes so what's listed there should be accurate and up to date.
