Take all you stuff down to the hire place and ask if you can check if it all fits in a Corsa

With 4 people in the car, everything else will have to go in the boot. Look at the list, I would imagine that the tent and coolbox would take up most of the space alone. I very much doubt it will all fit.

I hire cars frequently and use a corsa/fiesta size car if it is just my wife and I camping. Even then we still have items on the back seat/back seats down.

You have to remember that you were only taking two passengers so could fill whatever remaining space. The op is taking 4 people
