What car for road trip travel mode in Eurasia?

In my drawers, browse Eurasia in car.

Not right away. Maybe in two, five, ten, thirty, fifty years. From Paris to Istanbul, from Syria to Afghanistan. Push to Mongolia, arrived on the Pacific coast - and then come back from Kamchatka to the heart of the Russian Siberia furrow as big as Europe we know only by a point territory questioning until Northern Europe until France.

Between two dreams, I find myself often flipping sites automakers wondering: what jalopy embark on a journey as crazy? Of course, ten years, fifty years, the market will never be the same. Maybe there will be more oil. Perhaps these countries are impassable. Maybe we will have flying cars, what do I know? But if I left tomorrow, I think I'd want to have a car that would have a ten-year warranty (or a million miles ...) as was the case on the new Honda Civic Diesel, and would have the following characteristics:

- Relatively quiet
- Treasurer
- Replacement parts easy to find
- Ecological if possible
- Comfortable
- Fun to drive
- All terrain

Exit then:
- Trucks equipped: they consume too, are bulky, not really discreet. Then, on a trip, find a roof to sleep is one of my greatest pleasures - whether in nature or in private homes.
- Marks "prestige" as Audi or BMW, whose parts are both expensive and not easy to find
- The vans, caravans, and big cars in general.

It would make the car comfortable enough for two people for a bunch of time. It resistant to semi-desert terrain, without going to the Sahara sand but at least the Gobi Desert. That the back seats can be transformed into a bed, the trunk is quite large, and all four wheels are driven, I guess.

And what about a bike? In fact, why not? Probably a matter of time, crossings regions of crew to board, memories to lug around.

What choice would be possible today? Hybrid cars have a good plan to save a lot of money in gasoline? Do you have already done such a journey? This post is only a bottle into the sea, a childhood dream started as a joke at a bend in the afternoon, but, but ... who knows?
