A two seater but not as we know it....

[V8Wagon]

I really don't 'get' these....all the drawbacks of a two seater with none of the benefits such as neat proportions/lightness!

Are they actually aimed at builders/tradesmen who need a pick up but need to get the job done, like REALLY quickly?

All I know is I want one.

Welcome to an Australian mans way of thinking!

You have to see them in their natural environment...

More surprising is that you can actually buy a new one in the UK from your local VX dealer:

This one looks like it has actually been a 'working' vehicle....

I've always said the day I want a 2 seater V8 I could find/afford one I'd buy the Maloo. It's just awesome

[Killer2005]

I've seen one around these parts and its bloddy cool. Also makes a very pleasent notice too.

Over here rather than drive crummy drev transits or panel vans the sparkys plumbers builders etc all seem drive round in these beautys:

425bhp so no reason to be late to the job!

Still love the noise of them as well, if I ever move back to the uk going to miss the rumbling V8's that are so common here

Don't care about the fact that they're completely impractical for the UK - want one badly.

Yup. Great isn't it? Beats the constant sea of crappy white diesel vans we have over here.

If I was going to have a dedicated tip-run vehicle, one of them would be perfect.

I don't see how it's really any more ridiculous than, say, a supercharged Range Rover.

But they're right hand drive, will sit at the legal speed limit on motorway at tickover

And still do 8mpg if you're careful!
