General boot space in the cinquecento or seicento

[dipole]

I've been searching here and on google but can't get an answer to this.
With the rear seats folded is the load space flat or are the folded seats on a higher level than the boot floor.
Anyone got a picture of the boot of the Seicento or Cinquecento with the seats folded?

mine go pretty much flat. not perfect but not far off in all honesty, the seat lifts up and the back goes down in there place so it goes flat.

size wise if your interested ive had a washingmachine in mine with aload of spare space.

Seats in my Cinq don't fold completely flat, but I think it's due to the driver's seat being most of the way back, which stops the bottom part of the rear bench being folded forward enough.

28" widescreen CRT TV in mine.

They are the same shell and seat set up - so much the same. I didnt realise the seat base folded for about 6 months!!!

Couldnt resist posting this pic - didnt have one of an empty boot...

Thats weekend camping gear behind a 7.50 land rover wheel - larger than standard iv also had a washing machine in mine too.

Blue dan group is right! - If you have the seat right the way back - the seats dont fold down flat/all the way. So u can just move the seat forward a little - ok for short trips if your tall

Thanks for the answers. Perhaps time to change the thread title to "what's the biggest thing you've put in the back of a 'cento?" to see what sort stuff comes back.

hahaha awsome. i had 3 3foot fishtanks and stands in, pretty easily. i was amazed by the nice square shape you get and alot more room than quite a few other cars tbh.

as for the seat problem i move mine forward drop the seats flat then push the drivers seat back, does put presure on the seat but most of the padding absorbs it tbh.

went camping with 3 guys in the car and a 14daysupply of gear for all three haha, bumpstops wernt so happy though!!!

Various bodies of water not a problem then?
Maybe a Cinq is light enough to not break the surface tension if you're going quick enough, I'm not going to try though...
