This Austin Maestro Countryman Is a Tiny Camper for a Tiny Price

If the only thing holding you back from living the #VanLife is a disinterest in vans, then the perfect camper for you is hitting the auction block soon. It's not what anyone would call a van at all, but a rare 1986 Austin Maestro 500L Countryman conversion, which is based on Austin Rover's hatchback from the 1980s. It's one of the rarest iterations of the Maestro, according to Silodrome, and I'd add that's it's one of the raddest, too. Because, really, when was the last time you were able to draw the curtains in your hatch or wagon and kick back reading a little Bertrand Russell?

MG EXE181 concept looks to brand's need for speed today and in the past

MG turns 100 years old, and what a long, strange trip it's been for the brand that started as a promotional project for Morris Garages in Oxford, England. Now a property of Chinese state-owned automaker SAIC, the latest incarnation of MG has been putting cars on dealer lots since 2007 and doing a fine job of it; the brand sold nearly 850,000 cars last year, 88% of them exported to international markets. For its Eastern home show, MG took a page from its past in showing the EXE181 concept. A pure-electric single-seater, it's the rebirth of the 1957 and 1959 MG EXE181 that broke land speed records at our own Bonneville Salt Flats. It was nicknamed the Roaring Raindrop and powered by a supercharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder MGA engine making 290 horsepower. Stirling Moss drove the 1957 effort to a top speed of 245.64 miles per hour, with fellow F1 driver Phil Hill outdoing that two years later by going 254.91 mph after the engine had been turned up to 300 hp.
