Re: Slabs
Nose weight is 120KG imposed on an X5 towbar, so 300 KG spread over the boot shouldn't break anything.
Like having 3 rugby players in the back.

Re: Slabs
Well obviously a load is more than a pile but certainly less than a sh1tload

I put a load of rubble in the back of mine last year and the air pump fuse blew. It didn't like the weight.

The Op very clearly, concisely, and specifically, asked "What kg .....". How many kg's to the nearest pound, sheckle, or lev, was your 'load'? We can accept imperial US measurements too. I mean was it a full load, a big load, or even a shit load, of rubble. What type of rubble was it? EU compliant, US type rubble, reguiar rubble, or normal British rubble? You said it was full - full to the gunwales , or just as much as you could lift? Was it light rubble, heavy rubble or just usual rubble?

Err...full...

Full with the back seats down, or full with the seats still up? Full as in to the roof, or just quite full? Full in the front too? Did you have some on your lap?
Or just a general pile that was generally full?
