Just some interesting facts from my au 1 ford handbook..The weights are in kgs..
au sedan forte 1493 au wagon forte 1585 au sedan futura 1520 au wagonfutura 1600 au xr series 1510 fairmont sedan 1530 fairmont wagon 1610 ghia 1610 The utes were not listed in my book.If anyone has the ford ute book please post up .The Above are for the six cylinder engined cars.V8 weight exactly 20 kgs more. While I know these figures must be wrong they are accurate for comparison purposes. My wagon weighs 1720 kgs for sure!!Being a futura I can safely say that the sedan weighs 80 kgs less..

uhh. this isn't the first time we've had this type of thread. next we'll have people claiming the xr6s were lighter than the fortes, that the forte's are actually 1300kg or 1800kg cos someone saw it once on the scales at the dump etc.

Petrol + your weight (if you were in the car) + any tools you may be carrying
120kg's isn't a massive amount |
