and weighed the bits...
carpets
speakers
plastics
sound proofing (4kg!!)
parcel shelf
mats
mudflaps
spare wheel
and ive saved 38.5kg!!
ive still got to weigh the rear seat belts and all the fixings
and the rear bench and 60/40 split!
does anyone know what a 1.3 bonus 90 mk4 escort would weigh in standard form?

is that quite alot of weight to shred off a car buy stripping it?
its 38.5kg at the moment but when ive weighed the rear bench and all the brackets and rear seat belts i reckon i will have saved about 43/44kg...
enough to make a noticable difference?
is there anyway i can find out how much they weigh standard?
or can anyone find out for me please...
thanks

it had a zvh (heavier slightly), a fibreglass RST kit Bonded and Blended in, so there would have been a few kilos there, not quite 100 odd though
