50kgs I thought.Its mainly the aircon and 3 less airbags etc Other wise most of the differences dont make much of a difference weight wise ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

AC pump is 8 kilos on its own, there's 3/4 of a kilo of gas+oil in the system IIRC.condenser is 2.8 kilos, dryer is 1 kilo, evaporator is 2.2 kilos. so that's about 16 kilos from purely the components, let alone the control units and pipework, lighter seats, less airbags, no sunroof (weighs a ton) so yes, it does add up and yes they are about that much lighter. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

"The most important receipt however is for £1378.91 from 24/11/11 for a thorough cylinder head overhaul which included a cambelt kit, water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, oil filter, drivebelt and much more (see the last pic below)."Snapper then? ________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |

Sunroof would have to be 6-8 kilos including the roof panel and extra metal in roof, drain tubes etc compared to non-sunroof model, the rear non-splitting bench seat would save 1 or 2 kg, plus the alleged less underseal (is this true?) we are comfortably over 20kg already. My Rallye spec from servicebox says "no underbody protection" so no undertray would save another 4-ish kg. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

I never realised all this stuff weighed so much, it's quite surprising. I stand corrected for my defiance of Rallye weight superiority.________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |
