Just do it mate.
We've enjoyed ourselves with the bus over the last few years about as much as we've enjoyed all our other cars combined.
We've had teething problems; but you expect that and we've worked through them. (Although our biggest problem, and hardest to solve, was with bloody bureaucrats!)
When we did finally get it on the road I never expected it to become the crowd-puller that it is; eventually I had to write a story board explaining its history and what it's running. I just got fed up with having to repeat myself over and over ad nauseam.
And lots of interesting people come up and strike up conversations about how it reminds them of a wide variety of experiences...
You walk away from it, look back, and someone's leaning on it having their picture taken...
All good.
Although you're going to need a full-sized one with your team!
