    Will you always be carrying the guitar and the 2 kids at the same time? You know it's illegal to play the guitar while driving I hope? ;)
    The kids can play it.

    Even so. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if a guitar was tricky to squeeze into something like this, especially if there was anything else in there, too.

    First will be fine, second not much is getting in there if they are struggling with a laptop.

    Budget - I can probably find 20K in savings. As the Coy Car is very new I was thinking ex-demo or 1-3 years old second hand. I do realise a plug-in Hybrid will be significantly pricer but aspire to be good to the environment (and running costs!).

    As I said in the OP: 2 kids OR 1 kid plus guitar, We have a larger family car if I've got more than that.
    What I didn't say was the guitar is in a hard case.

    No car I've met will take my guitar straight across the boot (perpendicular rather than diagonal) so there will not be enough between the wheel arches of that red car above.
    Scrapit - please trust me to know my guitar on this one.
