    Bit of a mention.

    http://smh.drive.com.au/motor-news/t...702-2p9d5.html


    We look at the five best cars to spend a night in.



    A night spent in the back of a car is often out of necessity, convenience, for thrills or a right of passage.

    The experience can be endearing or tedious – think cold morning air, fogged-up windows and dishevelled hair. But it is usually always memorable.

    Most Australians can vouch for sleeping it rough in a vehicle at least once in their lifetime. Some can even lay claim to being conceived in the back of a car.

    So in honour of those circumnavigating Australia or planning a budget trip to the snow, Drive has assembled a list of the five best sleeping cars.
