(17 Feb 2021, 11:14 pm)mb134 In terms of design I much prefer the Evora bodywork Lothian have on their new batch of B8s, the Lothian livery possibly helps given it is quite angular itself mind.I had one of the Wright bodied B8RLEs with East Coast Buses a few month back and my god it was awful, never experienced rattling like it before making for an unpleasant ride, somehow made me glad to be on an E200MMC afterwards (Borders Buses 253). The MCV eVoRa doesn't seem as bad as the Wright bodies on the same chassis, have found the Volvo B5TL with EvoSeti double decker bodies better than the Gemini 3s like GNE have, same can't quite be said for looks but otherwise MCV seems better IMO.

That said, I think I prefer both the Wright bodywork and the MCV one to the E200 MMC at this point, and both are substantially better looking than a Streetlite.
