I drove my phase 2 onto a weigh bridge the other day, in the car I had my daughter and child seat,myself, a load of CDS and maps and 2 litres of oil.
My old phase 1 V70 T5 with myself and a bit of crap came in around 1580 KG, aparantly an 850T5 estate comes in around 1450 Kg so how much did my phase 2 weigh???

According to the Auto trader Techy bit the 850 weighs a minimum kerb weight of 1412kg and the V70 weighs a minimum of 1415kg.

So not much in it.

HTH

Engineer and I both went on the weigh bridge, when we were doing testing for some electronic speed tester equip, His car is a S70R and mine was a V70R AWD, I was more suprised than he was,

So what do you reckon?

no but, it says in parkers.......


LOL, only joking, would be interesting to get a standard 850 T5 on there as well. i think i remember someone telling me that their 850R estate came to 1500kg on a weighbridge, but slightly dodgy memory.

Cameron, fwiw, that figure could be a basic 850 T5 with no fluids(petrol, water, oils etc.).

Thats very supprising, mind you when I put my phase 1 on they was me and all my Fishing tackle in the car plus whatever other junk, I will weigh the Mrs's 854 T5 sometime, thats basic spec
