Are there any cars with fold flat seats that can be used as a camper?

I'm looking for an older used car that can be used as a camper sometimes. It will need back seats that fold down completely flat for a double or small double mattress. Ideally, something that costs max £1500 and is relatively cheap to run. Does it exist?

A van-based people carrier like a Citroen Berlingo might be a good option or something like a Toyota Corolla Verso. You might find space between the rear wheel arches to be limited, however. A tent might be a better option - a car will be just as cold at night!
