Looking for a weigh bridge , in central scotland so i can get an accurate weight figure for my s2 exige.


The nearer stirling the better.

Anyone know of any round here?

YOu could get the car corner weighted if you want to be pin point.
Not sure about weigh bridges though, cheers Ed

Not sure, but the one at the skips in Greenock must be broken, as I have used my one ton permit to dump about 3 tons of rubbish and it still lets me use it! :lol:

Might be worth asking a Mr Stu160 to run another Se grand weigh in to see if I loose my Image

747kgs

That is exactly what mine weighed when Mark checked it a couple of weeks ago. That was with half a tank of fuel, harness bar & a pair of four point harness, soft top (with cant rails) behind the seats, a mini compressor thing for inflating tyres, a litre a spare oil, a small tool kit (half a dozen spanners) and a digital SLR camera.

I think I could give you a run for your money on the weight front :D

P.S.
What is the second slip for? Looks like an S2 :wink:

Second slip was me with my winter weight :)

Car had been fueled 5 mins from Stus so full 40l, full washer tank :) soft top on. Boot was empty and coolant and engine oil was all at normal levels.

Was very happy with it as it was a very interesting night showing up odd setups on cars with some very uneven loads due to adjustable Gaz (sp?) suspension.

Ask Ian to tell you the SIDC washer bottle story :)

How the hell did you manage to gain 90kg? :?
That's about 30kg more than mine with an almost full tank!

Yep, IF motorsport will do it for you I'd imagine.

Look Sarah is from London so we do two christmases one at her parents and one at my mums in Glasgow. This means two xmas dinners, two puddings and two lots of port.

Down to <85kg now though :)
