Jim - you have a PM 
Riccy - D'Oh! I just went for some nice big hinges, never thought of piano hinges along the edge... Into the end 'grain' of plywood though? I'm sure my 6mm countersunk bolts and strengthening plates will be more suitable for my boys though -
(We were having dinner, so they had their ties on!)
They are brothers, Buddy (the Bear) on the left, and Milo on the right...

Nearly finished...
The finished floor ready to go in...
In the upright position... just needs a bungee cord around the headrests to hold it up in position...
Laid flat... the rear headrests are taken off, the seats folded as much as they can, and then the floor folds out over them...
Job done!

Yes, just finished it...
.
.
It's 3mm x 30mm angle iron, half inch ply, a few hinges and some rubber matting?
It was either that or strap the dogs to the roof-rack, but then I figured the CofG would be a bit high
