As we have seen in the last few days, Rootes badged its commercials as Commer and GM in the UK used the Bedford brand. Leyland was quite random in terms of van badging but in 2001, MG Rover came up with the MG Express, a van version of the zippy MG ZR hatchback. These are quite rare. I saw this well-kept example at the Practical Classics resto show in March. #davidsdailycar #MG #WeirdCarMastodon

    @davidwilkins@mastodon.online That had to be a very niche market! Cool though

    @davidwilkins@mastodon.online veery cool. Does not sound useful at all, compared to a normal compact van with similar length/width though. (2002 Opel Combo C for example https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/64/Opel_Combo_front_20080701.jpg/960px-Opel_Combo_front_20080701.jpg)

    @davidwilkins@mastodon.online Even less useful than the HHR panel van:
