    Hello!

    I’m looking to buy a car and wondered what vehicles some of you use to transport your harp?

    I’m looking for a small car that gets good gas milage.

    Thank you!

    Depends on the size of the harp. The larger the harp, the more limited your choices (pedal harp compared to lever harp).

    I have a L&H 85 CG.

    I’m looking at possibly getting a RAV4, but not sure if it would be big enough.

    Hi,
    Mercedes E-Class SW : can be an old and inexpensive model and unbeatable for loading large objects.

    I have a L&H Style 85 GP that just fits in my Chevy HHR. I’m not certain if Chevy is still making the HHR, though – but it get’s GREAT mileage and is a all-around economical car. Great bang for the buck, but certainly not a luxury car…

    I just bought a Toyota Matrix…. and I love it! But it’s an older model so I don’t know if the newer models would fit a 23. I fit my 85 CG just fine and comfortably without feeling unsafe in the car. The gas mileage is great and I like the looks of it. I’m a happy college student 🙂

    I transported my teacher’s L&H Concert Grand from the World Harp Congress in my 2007 Rav 4.
