Nice simple one.
I am about to change my car from a LWB 4x4 to a small hatchback.

Just wondering what is the smallest car people have managed to get the ISO main into? (with battens still in and sail rolled up normally)

VW Passat Estate.

Not sure but I think the VW Golf Estate was ok also.

Why not take the sail with you to the showroom? When I go to view cars, I like to fold the back seats down and layout - testing the weekend race meeting sleeping accomodation! The sales people do look at you funny!

I can get an ISO main in my 106, and a boom for that matter. It involves a bit of seat juggling but fine if you don't want to carry passagers!

Hi

I can get all my sails, kit and virtually everything except the mast and the boat in my Punto, so you probably have a wide choice of cars !! However if you go aborad with the car, I would get something bigger as ducking under the sails at the toll booths is interesting to say the least !!
