Mawrick 0 Posted June 29, 2010 Wasn't sure where to post this - but came into a "funny" (NOT) trouble with the guys doing registration work here in Norway. Apparently my 95 VR6 have been registered as a 2 seater (1 driver and 1 passanger) in Sweden. And the cause of this seem to be that the difference between the car weight and the total allowed weight is under 300kg. I'm doubting this to be correct - so have to digg a bit further before I pay the taxes on it - I need to get the data right before registering it, as coming to those guys wanting to change something afterwards I would think would be even more difficult. Anyone happen to have the exact data on those 2 weights - preferable from one with airbags (IIRC you guys never had airbags in the UK versions?) - but would also be interesting in seeing the weight of a 95 without airbags. thnx again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted June 29, 2010 Have a look at the tech specs ... http://wiki.the-corrado.net/category_ge ... _info.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted June 29, 2010 had a look and seem to be 1240kg - but doesn't say anything about maximum loaded weight - any idea? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 29, 2010 Maximum permissable laden weight is in the manual. 1240Kg for Vehicle weight is about right. I actually weighed mine on a weighbridge and with a full tank of fuel it was 1260Kg. Have you got public weighbridges in Norway? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted June 29, 2010 do you not have the VW Corrado handbook that came in the car? my 1994 handbook states 1240 for the VR I think, but obviously with options this varies a bit, I would have thought the info from the correct country handbook for your car would be as good as a legal statement from VW as you can get?

Mawrick 0 Posted June 29, 2010 I would think so to - but highly doubt they will take that as is.........it's a pain in the a**** to deal with these kinds of things here. Just had one guy use a whole f*** workday to get the paper work straight and look at the car - he even suggested I'd get a new appointment to get the coilovers into the paperwork (cause there was sooo much work involved checking it) - this was after waiting over 1 month for an appointment. When I finnished I drove back to the reception and was given a new appointment right away - the same guy came out again - took the car inside, put it on the lift jacked it up, took of the rear tires and measured the thread space on the coils - took him f'in 10 minutes or so to do..........still he wasn't convinced he was able to finish the paperwork today.........so I hung around....lol - ended up getting the paperwork, but obviously it's wrong as it's only a 2 seater at the moment....lol...... I'l have to check into this further tomorrow though.......:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
