It would.
I'm now retired, and on my own, and I want to explore spontaneously. A
trailer caravan isn't practical. I want a bit more comfort and
convenience than a tent.

More or less what I'm looking for. The Lunar is based on a slightly
larger vehicle, but still 'car sized' - and low enough to get into
multi-story car-parks. In 'car' mode it has 4 proper seats, each with a
door, so I'm hoping that it will be acceptable as an 'only vehicle'.
