I'll just my name to the long list of people who think that 321 looks terrible. The side clashes awfully and looks like someone got half way along the coach then ran out of purple, and having the yellow wrapping around the front like that, especially so thickly, doesn't suit the 321 at all. The version 1 and 2 Northern liveries are too white, which is boring and get's dirty very quick. The 3rd version of the livery looks very nice though IMHO. The Indigo Blue in particular is lovely and is a great base colour, the lilac complements it nicely and the white provides great contrast. Actually, as far as the contrasting doors go, I think it's got to be the best there is, since it's a big contrast, unlike some liveries (MML for one) where the contrast is quite small, yet it doesn't clash either, so it not only does the job very well, but it also looks great whilst doing it. It's a big contrast (litterally) to some liveries where the contrast isn't that good, and spoils the appearance. The only thing that concerns me is how it will look dirty (very light and very dark colours suffer worst when dirty). At least the black roof won't show up the soot from the exhaust though.
