Weight of a VR6 ?
« on: 07 March 2005, 23:07 »
Does anyone have the definitive weight to hand ? (even 3dr and 5dr ?)

A quick google results in figures from 1155kg to 1300kg...

It also said an early mk3 8v GTI is 1032kg, which suprised me, thought would be more..

Cheers, dan

Aha, good stuff, cheers.

So these are totally unladen, not the EU1 figures ? (which include 68kg driver, 7kg luggage, 90% full fuel tank)

Do VW typically quote unladen ?
