The "Eagle" was the lunar lander (LEM) for the Apollo 11 mission that landed the first men on the Moon, July 20, 1969. But there was no "moon car" or Lunar Rover on that mission. The first mission to carry one was the Apollo 15 mission, so they were used on the final three successful landings. The rover was folded and stored in one of the large bays on the side of the LEM, and the sections would unfold and lock into place.

Apollo 11 was designed to carry about 47,000 pounds (21,400 kg) of spacecraft, including the lunar module, command module, and service module. This weight was necessary for the mission to transport crew, equipment, and supplies to the Moon and back to Earth.
Did Apollo 7 land on the moon?
Apollo 7 never landed on the moon. It never left Earth orbit for that matter. Apollo 7's mission was to test the new command module and service module in space. Apollo 7 was the first mission to be manned after the Apollo 1 fire. Apollo 7 didn't even carry a lunar module that would have been needed to land on the moon. And because it didn't have to leave low earth orbit, a smaller and cheaper rocket -- the Saturn IB -- was used to launch Apollo 7 instead of the bigger and better known Saturn V.
