Anyone tell me what the maximum reasonable weight would be pleare to carry in the rear with row 2 and 3 seats folded flat.
Need to move some small paving slabs so would be spread out rather than the weight all in one spot.

Maximum payload 670kgs which has to include you (the driver and any passengers) and I believe fuel that's on board.
However you could hire/borrow a trailer which would increase what you you could move by 750kgs for an un-braked trailer or 3,500kgs for a braked trailer which would mean you didn't have to put all that mess in the back of your D4!!
A Marshalls Richmond Buff 450 x 450 x 32mm slab weighs 15kgs so guestimating you and half a tank of fuel weigh 125 kgs you could load 36 slabs .

Thanks for that
Need to move 60 x 15 kg flags so perhaps 2 trips of 450kg each.
It's more a worry over the weight on the folded seats but should be fine spread out.
It's a short trip so would take longer sourcing and picking up a trailer - will make sure there are plenty of protective sheets to collect the dust.

Would also put a fairly solid board behind the front seats as a sudden stop with all those slippery slabs could cause a few problems!! .
