FOCA Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 As title says really... 1.6 diesel engine specifically though Depends on different things - like the bodyshape - the estate is heavier than the hatch, and the trim level - entry level cars can be a lot lighter than "fully loaded" cars with all the "toys"- even different wheels and having a full-size spare is significant - the "curb wiight" may mean the "dry" curb weight or the "wet" curb weight (with oil, fuel, coolant etc) So its approx 1229 to 1630kgs across the range - more information would be required (body style/ model/ extras) to get the exact weight of a 1.6 diesel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This minimum is for the 1.6tdci 110 zetec hatchback with all standard kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Its printed on the label that is on the inside of the drivers door, Think mine is 1,750kg very heavy for a hatch, That's not including the body kit, exhaust, egr blank, 18" rims and all the wiring + light units, But it does exclude the spare wheel, brace and jack, who ever he is and the Dom Dom dah D.P.F 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillesleyhenry Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Haha 1750!? Jesus that can't be right? I've got a zetec s 1.6 tdci with sat nav, voice control etc and 18inch alloys so probably weighs quite a bit, but hoping not as much as that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the MOT now out of the way, i recon another minus 30/ 40kgs and a with a bit more power/ torque too - i woold like to see 200HP and 400Nm My dads Toyota was being repaired and i remember thinking the rear suspension looked like something off a race car or an aircraft as it was full of holes and looked very light - the suspension was a "work of art" compared to an ordinary car A lot of people underestimate the importance of (light) weight - your Levin will be the weight of an F1 car lighter than your Focus! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your dads Toyota a Levin :) McPherson super strut suspension Sorry had to ask seemed a funny question IMO Just been out there guys says 1835kg in silver and black, Now perhaps that's maximum capacity load but sounds very low to be that, The levin BZR is 1070kg so I'm looking forward to losing the weight lol I'll get a picture of this label for you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I'll get a picture of this label for you guysHere's the label, I've cropped it because the line above it again is my chassis number and I don't share that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOCA Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 That must be the gross vehicle weight (1835kgs) - the curb weight is probably about 1350-1400kgs -if so the payload is about 435 - 485kgs max Years ago my dad had a Toyota Corrolla twin-cam 16v (RWD) - it was a UK model (i think), it was a hatchback - i have vague reclections of it, one of them was when it was in bits and looking at the rear suspension, which looked a bit special 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixmasterlooney Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 That is most definitely the max gross weight. It's not far off from the max gross weight i posted either so seems pretty accurate. Gross Vehicle Weight (kg) 1885 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
