Volkswagen Crafter Race Home

Now there's a double entendre that should stir the hearts of enthusiasts.

Unfortunately, we're speaking only of British enthusiasts, who now are able to buy an exclusive edition of the Volkswagen Crafter van called the Race Home. Developed at the company's Van Centre here, the Race Home — based on the long-wheelbase, high-roof Crafter panel van — is aimed primarily at motorcycle racers, but should have even broader appeal to cyclists and motorsports enthusiasts of all stripes.

The Crafter Race Home can transport two motorcycles or a quad bike, and can serve as a base for race weekends. It's outfitted with hand-built furniture, leather upholstery, two pull-out double beds, double-glazed windows with blinds and a heating system. A full kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, microwave and three-burner gas grill, and the bathroom has a toilet and shower.

When the Race Home is set up, it includes a garage area with walls, ceiling and heavy-duty checker-plate flooring, plus storage space for tools and equipment.

Fitted with a 136-horsepower 2.5-liter turbodiesel, the Crafter Race Home is priced in England at $93,918 including VAT.
