Max weight inside?

What is the max weight I can safely carry in the boot?

I have bought 20 batteries that are 23Kg each, I guess it would be safe to carry them providing I secure them well first. Dale

Don't VOSA check axle weight? If you're putting the 2nd row seats flat and spreading them evenly, you'll be fine Thumbs Up
