Today, I was quite shocked how much you can get into the C6 with the rear seats folded down!

The first load was the two front, and two rear seats from a CX, and the other load was a huge amount of miscellaneous CX parts! All that fitted with room to spare, in perfect luxury too!

Alright. That's enough. Does anybody want to swap for a lounge pack?
We bought a drop leaf dining table and four chairs on ebay yesterday; we had to take both cars to collect them. I got three chairs in the C6 - and the table and the fourth chair in the C2!

This is why I ended up with a Jeep with a towbar (and before that a Xantia estate).

OTOH, for security the C6 with lounge pack is excellent - having had camera gear nicked from a Peugeot 405 in the past...

Which is why one of my mates has just bought a Merc Vito. Very impressive 2.2 auto with all the toys, drives like a car but with an aircraft hangar's storage space. No doubt he will be asked to move a few tables and chairs in the future

Yeah, it's a big disadvantage when you have the Lounge Pack and can't drop the seats...then again, bikes, chairs, miscellaneous parts in a C6? Shocking, shouldn't be allowed If you want a load lugger, buy a white van

Thinking back to when I had my Xm Estate, at various times I had a complete cast iron fireplace and a sideboard in there, not to mention two single divan beds!

My friend wanted a hand moving house the other day. I was very glad I had the lounge pack that day, believe me. Think I took a couple of suits and a pillow in the end. Sweet.

Well it was either the C6 or the Bini!

Even with the folding seats, mine don't fold flat. The armrest fouls on the central stowage drawer. I assume I'm not missing something and being a numpty here?

(I also moved houses using an XM Estate - they were truly capacious - I must admit to missing mine quite a lot - the C6 hasn't quite replaced it in my heart)...
