Self inflating mat on the inner groundsheet. A decent self inflating mat needs no extra insulation and it's the quickest item to set up and takes up least space in the car.
It doesn't have to be an expensive option either, my kids use the standard £12 Hi Gear ones, Hubby and I have two 5" cm ones that came from Aldi a few years ago, they're 80cm wide instead of 70cm.
I never thought I'd like SIMS btw, I imagined them as too basic and as I have two badly damaged discs I thought I might find them not pagged enough or too difficult to get off the floor. Well, I have eaten my words, a SIM is far warmer than an airbed and more comfortable too. It's no more difficult to get off a SIM than an airbed either. (I can't do campbeds, they're entirely the wrong height for me to get up off, I have to get down on the floor first.)
And the speed of set up for a SIM is unparalleled. You take it out the bag, open the valve and throw it into position on the floor with the sleeping bag on top. At some point before you go to bed you close the valve. That's it. I took a friend camping this weekend and she asked for an airbed, I needed a mat for under it plus a fleece and fitted sheet for the top, it took me ten minutes to assemble this bed including blow up the airbed. Bloomin' faff.
