Whats the weight of a standard S2 car?

and whats the weight of the engine.

Just working out the weight for towing a s2 minus engine.

Was going to use a 306 1.9TD, The braked towing weight according to the book is 1200KG, The trailer weights around 500KG's.

 

A tonne give or take as a complete car...

Hear either 1080kg or 980kg quoted a lot but don't hold me to either

 

so what about a mk4 cabrio??

 

1400

 

are you being serious???

 

Yea all double skinned

 

Incase anyone else stumbles accross this while searching, the cab is approx 910kg, the hatchback approx 850kg.

According to Ford's own brochure from 1989.

 

Didnt realise they were that light!! Is that including fluids and fuel?

 

my stripped out track car weights 867kgs thats with all the trim etc gone loads of metal cut away inside windows replaced and all door electrics etc removed , cabon roof so i cant see it being 850 for factory with everythin in it ???

 

if it like the bike companies than its minus the fluids and the battery

 

a base spec might have an 850 dry weight,

my 1.1 mk3 fiesta was 770KG's dry but an RS1800 is 1080KG's according to haynes..

 

I can Deff say there is three parts of f*ck all in stud car!!! Doors internals for the lot lol

 

I can Deff say there is three parts of f*ck all in stu's car!!! Doors internals for the lot lol

 

the weight of mine is with water oil and full tank of fuel

 

i would never of said an rs would be sub 900, as said above my guess would be about the 1000 mark

 

Really?

CARS brochure from 1988:

 

My pretty standard 1989 model including all fluids and half tank of fuel+spare wheel weight 935kg without driver.

 

Thats interesting, in the ford manual it says 980kg so i wonder how they came to that- a small woman driver included? lol

 

I could have sworn it was around 1080kg. Thats the number that seems to be stuck in my head anyway.

 

Correct they are, the brochure shows 945KG for an XR3i which obviously is lighter than a RS!

Martin

 

so what on an RS Turbo makes it 135kgs heavier? Only differences are Turbo, Seats and bodykit

 

And my car is fitted with all "luxuries", sunroof electric windows etc. All original sound deadening included. I know that 930kg sounds light but scale told that.
