Asides
- Bizarre but marvellously effective home-made campervan, created by three Japanese friends using a decrepit mid-80s Toyota Toyoace. [Thanks Daniel.]
- Drive it like you stole it: eyepopping video of the Russian Kamaz 4x4 truck in action at an exhibition.
- Nike's eight-wheeled 'Ill Mobile', an amphibious armor-plated war-truck from 1959 transformed into an extreme sport HQ.
- The very strange Toyota RV-2 camperwagon concept. Funnily enough, it never got made. [Thanks, Tim.]
- Steam-powered VW Transporter. "It has great acceleration and is deadly quiet. I heard it has the engine from a Stanley Steamer and can do 120km/h!"
- Lateral thinking from designer Dominic Wilcox: anti-theft rust and scratch decals designed to make your new vehicle or bike look shabby.
