So what does a standard Tuscan (or S) actually weight with say half a tank of fuel. Putting aside the claims, anybody got a factual reading for this?

I believe the OP is after REAL measured weights, not quoted weights.

For example;
97 Cerb 4.5 1225kg with 20-25 litres
05 T350c 3.6 1115kg with 20 litres

Both at MIRA weighbridge smile No driver. Both figures very very good for the size/power of the cars.

Edit; I'm sure "Noisy's" Tuscan came in at 1080kg, which I questioned at the time, but from our T350 result, actually seems plausible?

Hi - just to check that was without driver etc? On the basis that a litre of fuel is 0.711kg, that would mean a half full Tuscan would come in at about 1160kg.

(I'm assuming that TVR's 1100kg referred to totally dry of fluids + a variable level of artistic licence smile)
