ph1 and ph2 cup weights

[BrianB]

can someone please tell me the weights for a standard ph1 and also for a standard ph2 cup, also i take it they didnt do a lightweight "cup" ph1?

 

[CabinFever]

Phase 1 ( Ph-quick ) = 1035kg

172 Cup = 1021kg

IIRC.

 

[BrianB]

cheers for that,

any ideas what was removed to make the cup lighter than the standard ph2 except abs?

[DannoTheGreat]

My phase 1 says it weighs 1080kg's on the metal plaque, I bet the other models say more than the advertised weights too, as according to previous threads on here:

Ph1: 1059kg's
Ph2: 1110kg's
Cup: 1011kg's
182: 1080kg's

Best off just getting it on a weigh station

(oh, dont think there is such a thing as a 172 Ph2 FF as they didn't have cup type options with different trim iirc, only scat nav)

No spare wheel
Less sound deadening apparently
Thinner glass?

Maybe this should be stickied

Ha ha, good point, its not on there .... Sir_dave = fail :dapprove:

Sticky it anyway :rasp:

As i f*cked up with my 1st suggestion, try this instead:

[Tom]

Its already stickied, but the links are old and need updating.

And its 1089kg for the 172 cup.

 

[BrianB]

And its 1089kg for the 172 cup.

Really? thats a fair bit higher than the quoted 1011!

 

[Tom]

Who quoted that?

 

[BrianB]

Cup: 1011kg's

i wonder how many people have had them on a weigh bridge to see the true weights?

 

[KungFuSpaghetti]

Who quoted that?

I'd like to know where these come from too, my Ph1 says the weight of it on some sticker or plaque inside the drivers door bit lol

ive always been baffled by people bein anal about weight reduction and all that, surely if you're a fat cnut then any advantage by having a slightly lighter car is negated! an incentive to break my kfc addiction i think.

 

[legohead01]

thats with no fuel and no coolant/water

weight reduction = better bhp per tonne it isnt that hard to work out
