Well those that followed the previous thread, (weighbridges)
I have been and got weighed. It felt like going to slimming world
this is the result.
A massive 260kg over weight.
So here is what I have worked out,
Van unladen 3150
which therefore allows 350kg of load.
extras fitted, roof air con, satellite system, additional battery, bike rack (removed when weighed)
I filled up with both fuel and water prior to being weighed. I have in the van skis, and all ski clothing, numerous bottles of pop, the usual cupboards of food, I also have a calorlite gas bottle.
Incidently I weigh 75kg :Blush: and I put Nikki in the van (probably where the additional came from hardhat) but in reality only 50kg. The kids weigh no more than 20kg each.
So should I be worried by todays findings? If as mentioned I can pay a couple of hundred spondoolies and be re weighted to 4100kg? with out actually doing anything extra to the van?
Who actually knows how much there van weighs? or indeed who cares? and what are the implications for being found overweight?
thanks
