Body Mass Index!
How heavy (really) is an S1 Exige please!
Heard anything from 720kg to 790kg!
Mine also has a/c!!! So I need to add another 19kg I believe! Arrrggghhh! (Or remove 19kg!!!)
Cheers, Pete.
No 2 cars will ever be the same, due to spec/fuel load etc?
If you’re that interested, you could drive to your local waste disposal place (or similar with weighbridge) & get it weighed. Don’t they have weighbridges at airports?
Official certificate from Lotus says
"mass of vehicle ( Excluding driver,coolant,oil,fuel) 725K.
a large lunch would add a lot but filling the tank with 98octane will lighten the wallet.
If you’re that interested, you could drive to your local waste disposal place (or similar with weighbridge) & get it weighed.
perhaps instead of the next Exiges.com trackday, it can be a trip out to the local dump for a weigh-in
My Exige 192 non-aircon with the sports seats (if that makes a diff), harness bar, harnesses and pretty much standard everything else was 764kg on the corner scales with about 27L in the fuel tank so about 744kg with an empty tank.
Take off 5kg for oil, 7kg for coolant, 1kg for brake fluid equals a dry weight of about 730kg. Not far off the Lotus official 720kg weight.
Thanks guys!
No need to go to the Tip now!
