Yes, this is how it went when I once offered a work colleague, Richard, a ride to a garage a couple of miles away:
Definitely unsure, but he got in (1)
Looked round at the scruffy and work-a-day interior - flaking dash paint, corroded chrome and no headlining at the time (2)
and decided to get out again (3)
But couldn't find a handle - he was a large chap and filled the space well. So I started the engine (4)
He continued to looking vaguely for an escape (5)
I told him not to worry - I had done a few thousand miles in the car - it would get him there in one piece (6)
He seemed resolved to try so we set off (7)
Once we were underway he got the idea it might actually work (8)
We arrived at the garage and I let him out (9)
He still mentions it to this day...
