predawson Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 My pinto engined car weighed in at 660 Kg SVA with the following spec Full interior Windscreen No hood No spare Sierra front uprights (heavy) Type 9 Sierra diff + driveshafts Full tank 16" heavy B*****D wheels No weight saving mods. Chances are the weight would have been totally different on another set of scales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
predawson Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Thanks for your info guys. Popular opinion seems to be around 600-650 kg then. Just wanted to get a good idea from everyone, as I had no idea really of how much it weighs. People ask and I usually say about 700kg. ..Well OK, there was an ulterior motive too. I've just borrowed one of these G-tech performance meter things. It measures G-force and estimates your vehicle 0-60, 1/4 mile, 60-0 and also bhp at wheels. But for bhp you need to enter vehichle weight too. Will see what it comes up with for bhp, as I just had the Westie rolling roaded last week. On another note, I've just got back to the office after taking the Westie for it's MOT (it's first MOT in my ownership) and I am very happy to say that it passed with flying colours. First time that I've had a car do that for about 5 yrs. LOL! steve Let us know what the G-tech gismo comes up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalky Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 My guess is around 600 - 650. My Zetec engined car was 666 kg, that was full road spec though (carpets and all). Andy devil car ]666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adhawkins Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 It took long enough for someone to spot that... Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
