Sufficient gear to move into a part furnished house for a few months before the proper one is empty.
Funnily enough 139 and 140 happened 6 years apart but in the same car although I only owned it for 6 months.
BTW Berg I have had a full coupe set of seats (one piece rear) in a 944 cab. Ditto a full set of Boxster 16" alloys with tyres. You can fit a surprising amount in when you can lower the roof to get it in there, even leaving it packed in a way that you can put the roof back up again.

(Not too long ago) with the rear seats back: two girls on their bellies and my mate next to me. O yes, and Barry White on the hifi.
I WAS STILL AT UNI THEN DARLING HONESTLY!
No but seriously, my parents had at the end of the 70-ties a 924 and a 911 targa at home. If us three (my sisters and me) were out in the 924 we were laying on our back watching the lights through the rear hatch. Don't ask what would have happened in case of a rear -end shunt or even an emergency stop. Back then all of us found it well cool.

#143 30 boxes of tiles for the kitchen, each box contanted 35 tiles each =1050 in total, the rear end didn't like it much but got me home, a bargin is a bargin[
] and the rear shocks needed renewing anyway[][].
its got to the point now that if we (sorry i mean i) need to pick up anything large the BMW 5 series has to be left at home and the 924 takes the strain, its quite funny turning up on the car park of wickes or b&q, openning up the hatch and cramming all sorts of large stuff in. I really need to keep a camera in the car just to take a picture of the faces of people as they staire across and watch as the little sports car swollows all sorts of things.

Ah, my first Porker (where is H46 MCF now?)
On a November booze cruise with Kent Region some ten years ago:
Push chair, travel cot, 1YO and 5YO, two adults, luggage and raincoats etc., for a cold, wet, French weekend, two cases of wine strategically laid out in the rear footweels since kids feet didn't touch the floor -certainly helped the handling!![]

Ten cases of wine plus luggage is a fairly regular trip, but have also carried gas cookers for over 600 miles, building supplies, planks of wood, on one occasion,6 people( with the rear hatch open) after a rather good lunch in the french outback, and most recently new front and rear seats.

Best was a full size keyboard still in box that a friend had delivered to work (he had to get the bus home though).
I once got very odd looks parked amongst all the vans at a downhill mountain bike race. Who'd have thought you could have more credability in a lwb transit than a porsche.
