It's not a wagon, but there's a Ford EL limo a couple of streets away that thye guy has converted into a stretched 4door ute - sort of like a Holden Crewman, but much, much uglier

I once had a Bradford Panel Van. No pics, (before cameras were invented) who knows what it is. And dont cheat by asking wiki.

Consul Classic Estate

In perhaps the most radical conversion, Seventeen 2 door saloons were converted into estate form by Nairobi coach builders Cassini and Hughes for the Kenyan Police. Only the Estate shown below is known to survive and now resides in England.

And this is how Ford originally thought it should look, (clay model)

...as this super Golf dishes out a mammoth 650 horsepower and over 530 ft lbs of torque from the 6.0L biturbo W12 it's got mounted behind the front seats. All that juice flows through a 6-speed automatic to the rear wheels...

Not really a "wagon" but still pretty wacky!

sweet mother of god!

*rushes off to buy fist fulls of lotto tickets*

BMW have announced the spring (September in Europe) release date for the M5 Estate - and yes, it will be fitted with the same 507bhp V10 as the saloon *drools*

My dream car (Audi RS4 Avant) finally has some competition.

I can't believe I haven't mentioned this one before!

The wackiest of all wacky wagons! the..(drumroll please)

^{Lightburn Zeta Utility!}

Probably one of the worst concieved ideas to ever come out of Australia (Adelaide actually) they were the brainchild of a bloke by the name of Harold Lightburn who owned a company that made whitegoods and decided to take on the big boys with his "second car" for aussies.

Despite the fact that the idea looked good on paper, the fibreglass bodies were dismal in build quality, the 2 stroke 2 cyl air cooled engine was woefully underpowered and don't get me started on the chaindrive setup to the rear wheels (I'm serious!!!)

To top it all off, even though it is shaped like a wagon, there was no rear access to the vehicle and to get anything in or out of the back, the front seats had to be removed because they couldn't be folded down! No wonder there were only about 360 of them made.

If you want a real giggle - google the Lightburn Zeta Sports! They only made 28 of those and the world is still glad they stopped when they did
