Almost.. However, needing two of the local authority's ever smaller parking spots to itself would kill the appeal of the thing as daily transport. Unless I park at the crematorium car park and take the bB from there to work, a detour of some 18 KM that would also require my leaving the tall, skinny modern in the grounds overnight, which might encourage hauntings. Apart from the logistics though; yeah, I could enjoy a bizarre Daimler hearse/pickup mongrel!

OK, so it appeals to the exhibitionist in me

, 'cos normally, I blend right into any crowd and can seldom find my own car in a car park, what with there being so many millions of them on the roads..
The Daimler fails my
"Can I live in it if my house blows away?" test, whereas the Yaris-like thing in the image has a double bed, a toilet, built-in telly and a refrigerated glove hole so all I'd need would be a sleeping bag, a barrel of fresh water, a toothbrush and a 16" al funghi with extra fennel and a fried egg.
Mmm, pizza..
Back to car stuff though, and a recent trawl through the ebay threw up this wee beauty:

Hmm, that mini van is ideal for those who can't afford a Wildgoose, try finding either these days though!
I found another Bedford-related fillum clip:

There, that's more like the job. Suzuki SC100 indeed. Great drive, no space, no bed and the reason so many SC100s rotted away? I think that's because they came without a toilet..
Apparently, there was also an amphibious caravan in the olden days:
