About 1500Kg....

Last time i was at a MLR event.
This easily beats "Happy Birthday, my ST is now 2!"

FFS!
According to Parker a 3 door ST3 weighs 1317kg and has a fuel tank which holds 55 litres

Density of petrol ranges from 0.71 - 0.77 so it weighs 710 - 770kg per cubic metre. Take the midpoint at 740kg per cubic metre and it works out that half a tank of petrol (22.5litres) weighs 16.65kg

I personally weigh 74kg so all together my car with me in it and half a tank of fuel weighs 1407.65kg

Geek I know

Nothing against you mate, i know that most places note the weight on the lower side.

No idea how they are about 100Kg out?

I'm sure that I've read elsewhere that an ST3 weighs 1392kg so that ties in with your figures...
