Anderzander Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Errr, thought V8s weighed lots less that a 4 cyl petrol... I forgot about the alloy block .... I was just doubling up pipes and cylinders. Never mind there wasn't too much science in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disco_al Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 about the same as Wayne Rooney's weekly pie order - 2398 kg +/- 10% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 discos have an all steel body and a lot more interior so not an ideal vechile to use as a comparison A 110 weighs around 1800kg unladen, so i'm gonna guess 2T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbocharger Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I looked back through the votes up to Fridge telling us a few were within 20kg, and he's basically telling us it's a whisker under 2 tonnes. I'm more worried that I'm spending my time looking at the distribution of likelihood of weight of someone else's car, and trying to figure out my confidence interval...

landmannnn Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I reckon the unladen weight of a 109 petrol motor is 1500 kgPlus 60 kg extra for the V8 20 kg for the gear boxes 1 litre of petrol is 0.7 kg - so 2/3 of a series ((68 x 2/3) x 0.7) = 31. 7 kg 165 kg for person and kit portals 100kg - partly for the robust conversion work done ... 25 kg extra for the tyres 10 kg for the wheels... 1911.7 kg ... Isn't a 109 station wagon 1702 kgs unladen? Using the calcs above and ignoring the engine bit, the answer would be 2051.7 kg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
