LM presently have (from Wiki) 6960m of Desiro most of which operate to/from London, they will have 5400m of new units. This being the case, it's inconceivable that the London services will be exclusively new stock - they would never have bid a capacity reduction.
You keep missing the same thing. London services get 225 new carriages as well as refurbished carriages (class 350s) based on the DfT announcement.
