found this on google while looking for "subaru 360"s (no pics of imprezas doing do-nuts, thank god). I'm loving this got me thinking about other retro people movers, mainly the ones with little or no bonnet. people talking about barkas (amazing what you learn on here). then one of the skoda nuts on here posted a pic of a 1203s, which I am also liking a lot or toyota townace and the like (there must be hundreds of cool j versions) or my personal fave, the fiat 600 multipla and then theres ford 400e thames', bedford ca and countless others. so get your pics out and stick 'em here!

Well.... you could move people around in the flatbed bit.... I'll be honest, I hadn't even heard of the BArkas before they were mentioned here!

And why os one of the blokes looking at it only wearing his fashionable underpants?
How about Mk1 Espace as another retro people mover? Were the first of the new breed and in an amazing 80's kind of way seem to have no curves whatsoever.... Can't fnd any decent pics though

Follow your dreams or you might as well be a vegetable.

Anybody considered an early Toyota Spacecruiser? Seven seats, quite compact, you sit over the front wheels and I'm pretty sure most 4 cylinder Toyota lumps would fit giving you a pretty wide choice. How about dropping one into the weeds, a hot 2ltr engine, tinted windows, some 5 spoke alloys and a two tone paint job? I owned one of these a while back, it was a complete s**t heap but very reliable, very practical, it handled pretty well and with the early 1.8 ltr engine it was reasonably quick. Definately a future classic and a current Retro candidate.

For a start I want one!

that russian thing looks rather like they robbed parts from various things and threw them together rather quickly, sold it and ran away! or possibly the result of buying replacement panels from the dyslexic saxo driver in halfords.....
