there is nothing wrong with the howto (no conflict with xbian). So if you have supported HW (dongle whose RT/RF can work as AP) it should be working.

BUT!

if your XBian at car will be as long term placement and you are fine with the fact that only one WIFI device will connect to your car's XBian at the time, Ad-Hoc config is very easy.

edit /etc/network/interfaces on cars XBian :
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
wireless-channel 1
wireless-essid MYCARXBIAN
wireless-mode ad-hoc

install any kind of dhcp server providing IPs 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.200

then just connect iphone. you get this working in 5 minutes. just tested it. is the same way as iPhone's internet connection sharing is working .
