Is there any voyagers left in virgin colours in storage or in service or anything like that?

The Virgin base livery of red and silver is still in place on all units except 221101, under the Avanti or XC cab vinyls. There are no units with the vinyl livery elements of the complete Virgin livery still in place, though.

Technically the un-GC wrapped cars are unbranded Avanti livery
It's really still the Virgin livery on the intermediate carriage sides, if I recall correctly all of the ex-Avanti units (bar 221101) still have the ">><< ... >><<" on the carriage sides from their days with Virgin.

Well they wrapped the doors and added Avanti logos so yeah it’s unbranded Avanti, which yes isn’t much different than from Virgin days

All of them except 221101 are basically still in Virgin base livery - silver with red roofs. Subsequent operators have attached assorted bits of sticky-back plastic to various places.

So if I where to put a sharp object to the sticker and cut it, it would be red underneath?
