Good morning, I have offered to take my daughter and husband plus their two suitcases to Gatwick airport in my Fiat 500. Can anyone tell me please what the maximum weight is that I can carry in the Fiat. We are all of slight build! Not sure about the cases!
 
Let's assume 4 adults (75 kg each) and a tank of fuel is 360kg. The suitcases will weigh less than a human. One case may fit in the boot, other behind front seats. Car will be comfortable. There's full load tyre pressures in handbook, mid 30's psi all way round should be fine. The rears may need letting down when you return home. Hope this helps.
 
Thank you. Really helpful particularly re tyre pressures as I don't have my manual with me at the moment.
 
I've been and gone and done it! And lived to tell the tale!! Thanks to all for your helpful advice. Pumped the tyres up, cases fitted in fine with one of the rear seats folded down. (and they were large cases), with 1 passenger sat comfortably behind me and the other in front. The only problem was the traffic!! Thanks again.
