Bentley Arnage T Estate Car, 2003, by Genaddi Design/Pininfarina. A one-off that was created for a wealthy Italian. The long-roof conversion was carried out by American coachbuilder Genaddi. Their work included giving the car four wheel drive using parts from a Cadillac Escalade. The client was less than happy with the result so sent the car to Pininfarina who retrimmed the interior adding a folding rear seat and the twin sun-roofs. The work to turn the luxury saloon into a station wagon allegedly cost €900,000 though the car was offered for sale in 2022 for €129,000.

Honda Acty Street L & 4WD, 1982. The Street was the passenger version of Honda's cab-over kei van. "Acty" is short for "Activity". The engine was fitted amidships, behind the front axle. The Street version survived through 3 generation and was discontinued in 2009

Another variant of Britain’s world-beating utility vehicle (and thank you very much for sparing us the "sports" that usually precede it): Mid-1990s Land Rover Defender 110 Tdi. The real sport for men is to construct a cool, individual body. No mountain is high enough with this rear end...
