Pinball haulers

You guys arent trying hard enough, I got a Mousin Around home in a 1997 Honda Civic 3 door once, but I did have to take the backbox off, and I had taken the passenger and rear seats out before going to collect, but other than that it fitted no problem.

Ive also moved a Jungle Lord and and Elektra (Separately) in a older Suzuki Jimny, and they are tiny inside.
 
It says old Sportage will but not since 2011 model.
This displeases me - since my other half wants one of these. (I mean that in itself displeases me, the Ceed estate we have now does ~40 MPG even when it used for short runs weeks on end, costs £20 a year to tax and fits pin in... a sport-aggy doesnt sound like an upgrade to me.
 
Got offered this yesterday for £750 mot’d from bro-in-laws garage, drives and sounds lovely. Pretty sure it fits a pin in😃
15mpg though, previous owner was saying 25mpg. No chance it does that!

My wife has always wanted a Range Rover so text her saying I told you I would buy you one one day, she turned it down😂
Bit different from her Prius.

I recently moved (well actually two others done the lifting) a modern Stern and can confirm they fit into a Honda Civic Mk8 2006-2011, 3 door or 5 door models.

These style Civic Mk8 models examples below, storage capacity is the same on 3 and 5 doors models. Far easier work using the 5 door model for access.

You need to remove both rear seats though (takes 5mins, a couple nuts and bolts) as the head catches the roof lining.

Prepped Pin for moving (night before)
Removed rear car seats
Carry Pin to drive
Place Pin on Stools and remove legs
Protect and wrap Pin corners
Lay Pin onto cardboard on boot lip (front first)
Access boot via rear doors and pull cardboard forward, whilst someone guides and pushes back of Pin.
Check secure, add further blankets packing etc if needed.

Some example photos below showing my boot space on a 3 door Mk8 (rear seats not removed), when I needed to move GOTG. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos on the day when the Pin was moved, but we used a 5 door Civic Mk8 as easier access to the rear.

Ford Fusion fits pretty much everything straight in (only Gotts like Class of 1812 and World Challenge Soccer etc, have I had to take the hinges off and slide the back box down). Honda Jazz pretty much everything but same as above and for newer Sterns, back box slid down. As Phil said it's the height. Quashqai which is my other car, terrible, doesn't fit anything
