Hi,

I had a GSO 12 inch DOB. It's a telescope and not a carton of eggs. Basically i used to throw it in the back of my Hyundai Excel with the base on one side and the tube carefully resting on an old pillow.

If it fits in your car then no problems, if it does'nt then I guess you may need a trailer.
