Kinell, where are you getting them? Are they in stock?

We have a 'man with a van' operating around here, have a look in the back of
your local paper, you may have something similar.

You might get them on a roof rack.

Back of a big van or on the roof rack.

No chance. To get a 3m length of trunking or similar in my Laguna
(recently deceased) I have to wedge it down the side of the seats and
bend it into the footwell, and it just fits. Don't think you can do
this too easily with a worktop!

Remove the head rest from the passenger seat, put worktop over passenger
seat, use luggage straps to hold them in well. They will probably still
stick out of the back, so put a large bit of white rag on the rear end and
drive *carefully*.

Pull over when seeing a flashing blue light in the rear view mirror -
bad idea to try to accelerate away.

Bad idea to brake either, if you like your windscreen.
