Can you suggest an easy to load estate car with no boot lip?

I have recently come to need a mobile scooter. This dismantles into multiple parts but these are still heavy (15kg) and are a shape that make it difficult for my wife to load into a boot. I would like a small estate car which doesn't have a lip so that loading is that much easier. The Skoda Fabia is ideal apart from the lip. Any ideas?
