Gretel Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I currently have a Nissan Pulsar which is a great size for me but I've decided to pass it on to my daughter and trade her little bomb in and buy an automatic. My OH has a Getz and my trolley won't fit in the back of it. Does anyone have a small hatch that fits a trolley or do I need to go with the same size I have?

WreckitWhippet Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I could fit my C-crate trolley standing up behind the front seats of the Lanos and a friend can get her larger trolley in behind the Mirage doing the same. You just have to put them on an angle to get through the door and then stand them up behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TessnSean Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Mazda 2 has a huge area when you fold the back seats down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gretel Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 In my present car I can have a crate on the back seat and the trolley in the back part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointers Rule Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Get a Honda Jazz, the seats in the back lift up so you can put large things in the back seat area and then the dogs in the boot part, which is also a really good size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tambaqui Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I own a Mitsubishi Lancer I originally had a big trolley, but since I now own a Min Pin, I sold that and brought a smaller one from k9 antics. I got a good $$$ as I also had the kennel mat and the trolley cover included. Best of all, it fits in the boot of my car! So does the chairs and the gazebo! The big trolley couldn't fit into my boot, so I had to lift it up into the backseat of my car. It was bloody heavy! If the show sells show trolley, you could ask them if you could try some trolley into the boot of your car. I am sure they'll be happy to do it!

Gretel Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Thanks for the feedback I'm planning to go looking next week. I took my daughter out driving in my car yesterday. She has an auto and never driven manual. I think she'll pick it up fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynka Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Get a bracket that fits onto a towbar, it saves you lifting the trolley in and out of the car and gives you extra space within the car. It is one of my favourite things. I can take any sized car to a dog show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmaro Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 (edited) I've got a 3 door Holden Barina and you can slide the trolley behind the seats when the back is still up, or put in in the back when the seats are down. Love it and super cheap to get to dog shows! Edited January 10, 2010 by elmaro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizT Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I couldn't fit my trolley in our Pulsar Sedan boot, fortunately I also have a Rodeo with canopy (as I need it to tow the horse float with) and it's a great height to unload gear. If I need to use the pulsar then I have to take the crate and not the trolley. It's a nice height trolley for grooming (kind to my back) and can divide into four berths if I want, so I can load a fair bit of gear into it but I often wish I had a smaller one!

Rysup Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Where do you buy the towbar attachments? I have a wagon, but I can only fit one trolley and the dogs at the moment (as son takes up the back seat so no options there) I would like to be able to take two trolleys, but have not found where to buy one.

BittyMooPeeb Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Friends tried out the back of many cars and found that the X-trail was the only one that could fit a four berth trolley in the back **without having to put any seats down**. I bought one and love it - trolley in the back with dog crates on top, gear in the back seat. People sometimes too! A friend made a frame out of a dog bed (the ones that have hessian mats on them) which sits in the back. The crates go on top of it and the trolley goes underneath. I can take the trolley out without having to move the crates :rolleyes: . To say I love my new setup is an HUGE understatement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonlime Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Toyota Corolla...mine is a 2007 and its amazing what it fits in. I can easily set up 2 medium crates in with the seats folded down. I previously had a station wagon but I definately dont miss it! The Corollas are very roomy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
