I've been searching everywhere and can not find this simple answer :'(

If I want to know how much a new BMW Mini is, then it's no problem.

I'm really after the weight of a late 70's Clubman GT? Although I guess for the most part a Mini is a Mini regardless :proud:

Anyone know the curb weight?

Cheers.

I've looked at that before and wondered where a 1275GT is 70kg heavier than a manual clubman? Strange!

They probably just got back in from a rally with it caked in mud :proud:

you'll probably find it was to do with the trim and the Denvlo Runflat tyres/ Wheels that were fitted to the GT!

don't forge the GT had a 1275 block, I bet there's some weight difference in them, also things like servo's, but how that all adds up to 70kg's I don't know as that's like a fairly meety passenger

Unless when they weighed the test vehicle someone was sat in it !!! lol
