Default Hiring a Double Decker Bus

Anyone know of companies that hire out a double decker for the day,
either new style or old fashioned?

Want to take a group of people on a 100 mile trip from London to
Wiltshire and back the same night - can only take one vehicle so the
bigger the better - double decker coaches are working out very expensive
and buses also seem to be more fun.

Bear in mind that old buses are not very fast - even the souped-up RT
I went on recently would not do 50. Routemaster coaches might just.

I thought there was some sort of regulations about double decker buses
(not coaches) not being allowed on motorways?
