The humble VW combi. Miles and miles have been travelled in these all over the world - and they still never die! Do you know, a friend used to use one, fill it with clay (for pottery) about 1 tonne, and it would still climb the hill in 3rd gear! Brilliant vehicle! And you can sleep in it.

I love the VW bus...I'm going to travel the world in one after college...just me, a fold out cot in the back of the bus, all my cameras, a ton of film, a bunch of paper to draw and paint and write on, and, of course, the bus...I might have to tape a copy of this picture to the dashboard, lol. love it.
