I have a Celestron 8" which I have used for over 30 years, in my opinion it fell into the small/compact range and I found it very satisfying visually and photographically and was able to transport in most types of cars allthough in small cars it likes to have the back seat for itself, they even come with carry cases in those days. I now have the Meade LX200R 12" and I am also very happy with it as well. I would still consider this scope as portable although weight and size are now coming into play so it would reaching the upper limit in my books. I now own a ute so that makes it easier with the 12".

cheers
