Transporting a 12" Dob?

I transport my 12" by putting the tube in the boot (just), and the base unit on one of the back seats, with a seat belt strapped around it. On the other back seat, I fit my cases with eye pieces, filters and other necessities. In the boot alongside the OTA, I fit a cricket players type home made zipped bag with other necessities, alongside my trolley which breaks down into 3 parts for easier storage and transport. Anything left over, I fit onto the front seat. Hence I very rarely take the wife, (She refuses to go as she states quite clearly that she is NOT interested). Oh, and by the way, I used to drive a Mitsubishi, and now a Commodore Omega. Both cars I stacked the same.
