Guess the weight

by Chavtastic » Fri Oct 03, 2014 11:02 am

Okay I weighed my Calibra this morning, who can guess the weight?

It's an SE8 (2.0 ecotec), non-sunroof
Full roadgoing trim plus door speakers, stealth shelf, 6x9s
Spare wheel, jack, wheel brace etc...
No driver
The fuel tank was brimmed full to 60 litres as well

Closest guess wins!

It'll be no where as high as that, I just scrapped an se9 shell,no engine or doors etc and was only circa 800kg, I'll go 1100ish,unless my scrap yard has seriously shady scales!!

Callyman has it on the nose :clap:

That is with 60L of fuel, so 1256kg without fuel

Now lets see if I can get it down to a tonne, with a Saab turbo lump in it :mrgreen:
