Stagecoach 18416 & 10897
While Skegness was busy churning out a miserable looking ALX400 for their InterConnect route to Lincoln, Gainsborough were doing a bit better with one of their 67 plate E400 MMCs on the 100 to Scunthorpe.
Sure, I'd still take an ALX over any sort of Enviro, but I bet the passengers for the 56 would be a bit annoyed if they learned the bus on the relatively comparable 100 was 11 years newer, much cleaner, had high-backed seating and was better presented overall.
18416 and 10897 are side by side at Lincoln bus station on 21.11.20
