BACKSEAT BEDROOM
By Nick Andrew
A concise guide to living in your car
You never know!
The same thing could happen to you. You just won't accept 42 as the answer any more. It all started as a bizarre 2 week cost cutting experiment, but has turned into an 8 year (and counting) lifestyle change for our hero.
Nick Andrew, is not just a loud Scottish musician, he actually lives in his car!
And now the questions brew……!
Before the financial crisis, on the 12th July 2006, in his own private austerity measure, Nick moved out of his lovely rented wee cottage in Bedfordshire.
He has lived in a Blue VW Passat ever since. Partly to bypass the extortionate rents, in the south of England and partly to follow his dream of making a living through music and possibly make it to the breadline.
A friend of Nick's suggested that he document this unusual lifestyle choice in the form of a book, so Nick has created the non-fiction work, ‘Backseat Bedroom’.
The book is part manual, part travelogue with more than a sprinkling of humor. It has been likened in style to Bill Bryson meets Jeremy Clarkson, with lots of interesting and bizarre tips on how to live in ones automobile. You will never think of your car in the same way again!

"Truly hilarious, surprisingly moving and well worth reading"- The Sun
Aye, it's now been 17 years since the start of the experiment. I've moved home 4 times from a VW Passat to an Audi A6 estate to a Vauxhaul Vivaro van to my current home an old Mercedes Vito.
There have been many more adventures along the way. The switch from car to van living took 6 months to get used to. There may be another book in it......!
