JUst really wondering on how much weight people have carried in their cars really. Im planning to drive over to Belgium for a few days holiday with a few mates soon and load the boot with bounty on the way back.

Any thoughts?

Hi ya mate,

Shouldn't worry until ya back bumper drags on the ground. Bachy weighs a lot less, (and grass), but I think that you will be probably carrying much more liquid.

If I am up in that fabulous City of yours, (should be the GB capital by rights) I call round and assist you to consume it.

Best of luck.

If they don't get you for the excess booze, the police will have you for a overloaded car, last I heard is a £1000 fine and confiscate the

car(not sure if it one or the other, or both)

Hi ya mate,

Yes I have been to the best city in Britain. Smashing friendly folk. have seen all the Beatles old haunts, and Albert dock, also taken ferry across the Mersey river.

I have probably watched the film, 'A hard days night' possibly more times than any one else in the UK, and I never tire of it. I think it is a masterpiece, and probably my favourite film of all time. The tape has been played so much that the sound quality is not up to what it once was, and so I will soon be on my second copy, but probably a DVD version.

I have rang the Beatles experience several times , trying to get my hands on a copy of the film 'HELP' but they tell me that it is only released occasionally in small amounts, which I find a bit puzzling.

All joking a side it is probably a matter of common sense, as how much to load up, i.e. if it looks obvious to you, then it will to the authorities.

I have done it in the past, the last about 6 years ago, but not recently, and so they may be hotter at checking on people now. This I don't really know.

Any way, best of luck.

im afraid you can only carry 470kg which is the same as 5 adults at 80kg and 70 kg of bags (not much). AFAIK you cannot lose your licence for being overweight however VOSA or/and police can put a prohibition order on your car banning it from moving anywhere till the excessive weight issue has been solved and can add a huge fine into the equation. Details will also be stored on VOSA computer in case you get pulled up for the same offence at a later date.
