I actually prefer vans to cars - I've had a few campers over the years, and they're always more fun.
I'm not into sports cars - would much rather have a fully loaded MPV with loads of space.
But if we include vans and other vehicles, then an American style RV - the type that wouldn't fit on a British country lane! |
