I got one from ebay, 'Easipet' (seller, far east direct uk), it was £32.99, light weight and plastic and folds in half. But I would say, depending on the height of your boot it may make the ramp too steep, I have a van and it is fine for that.
I would take some measurements before you buy..and check out the max weight it can hold Also I found getting your dog to actually use the ramp can take some time too! Depending on your dog of course..but I started getting mine used to it in the house on the flat, with treats placed along it, and then outside on one step and now he will use it to get in the garden up 3 big steps, which is a similar incline to the van. Goodluck!
