Last year I took a 6 man tent, table, chairs, stove, food clothes etc 2 adults, 2 children and a dog for a week away in a Suzuki Swift.... have to say glad I was driving so I wasn't cramped.  

I think there is a tendancy to over pack and take stuff just in case.... just in case of what?  Decide if you are cooking, take food on that basis, good sleeping bags and beds, good warm clothing, anything else is not necessary and are extra luxuries.

On the other hand I am buying a new bigger car and getting a trailer tent next year.... never again!  lol

What ever I am sure you will have fun :-)

It's amazing what camping stuff you cannot fit into a Bentley convertible!

THE only reason I don't own one. Honestly!
