But then I always thought RMs looked good but were cramped and
uncomfortable, and would be perfectly happy never to travel on one again.

I realise I'm going against the grain here, but hey.

My main problems with the bendies is that they don't have an upper deck!
I do hate standing on a bus, and you so often can't get a seat on
single-decker buses. And then I end up not being able to see out of the
front window, and feeling rather car-sick. Which also applies if I sit
in the extension. I'd far, far rather haul myself up the stairs of a
double-decker for a journey of any length.
