has anyone had or know of any experiences using this to transport a powerchair?

i appreciate that a trailer would be the obvious choice for most, but i'll have a problem with reversing in and out of my small, tight drive and nowhere to store the trailer when it won't be being used.
and being disabled with no strength for lugging and lifting, need the easiest way possible.
any ideas or thoughts will be very gratefully received.
my car has a hoist for lifting the chair into the car, but my van (renault trafic) has neither room for a hoist to be fitted or space inside for the chair sadly.
yes, i know, i probably have got the wrong van for my circumstances, but after two years of looking for the 'right' one for me and my finances, got this one as felt time was running out for me to have some fun exploring and enjoying the freedom, before i got too old and knackered.
i do carry a manual chair with me too which is fine if i have someone with me, or the going is easy, but that isn't always the case, and i can't rely on that as i previously thought.
