HERE’S a little challenge: assemble, in your head, the ultimate ‘fish out of water’ vehicle. One that, in theory, would look about as at home in a sunken Hampshire lane as I did at the Royal Opera House on my one and only visit.

It would need to be big – big enough to send walkers and cyclists scurrying up the chalky banks. It would need removable body parts – doors, roof sections, boot covers – and a fold-down screen; all dead handy for one afternoon in a year, assuming you’ve got somewhere to store all the bits.
