Right looking for answer here?

MSA rules are changing about weight limits but need to find out what the standard weight of a 1600 Nova GTE when it left the factory. If you know please tell me

Cheers

PS mine currently weight's 833kgs with all standard panels and safety equipment fitted as required.

Haynes says 834kg, Carfolio says 820kg.

I believe Carfolio is a manufacturer's "dry" weight tho, so that accounts for the 14kg difference.

That seems a lot, dont forget weighbridges usually round up or down to the nearest 20...

Especially if you are weighing stuff they want to sell...;)

Trying to understand new weight limits for rally cars.

MSA says all 1600cc rally cars after 1981 must weight 920Kgs!!
pre 1981 cars can weight 840kgs. This is due to kick off 1/1/09 and mine weights 833kgs. its like adding a third person into the car.!!
