My LWB High roof weighs in at 2850kg with 2 people & half a tank of gas. It has a fair bit of bar work, PTO winch and a box of tools and spares in the back, running on alloys with 35in Kumho KL71's...

Had my low roof LWB at GMR's weigh bridge and it came at 2310 with a third of a tank of gas, one passenger and a wee bit of recovery gear/tools, with 35's and F&R barwork too...

I thought the LWB High roof weighed in around 23-2400kg dry...
I know it's only got a payload of 350kg...whether that includes driver/passengers i don't know, but if it does, then 4 more people with me driving and i'd be seriously overloaded

350 kg load thats wat mine usualy has in the back before i start loading it. I have had 800 kgs in the back and 2000 on the trailer. and towed it from kaitaia to taupo no worrys . little bit slow on the hills.
vehicles have 2 wieght ratings. one for the rest of the world and one for kiwis . they dont write the kiwi one down because they know we wont listen anyway

My tow bar has (well, had before i painted it matt black) a sticker that says it's rated to tow 3500kg, so i need all the weight i can get in the safari for traction...

An auto is about 100kgs lighter! Seriously!!!!!!!
The last time I weighed mine in standard form it was 2222kgs with me in it. So about 2100kgs. That was with TJM bar (no winch), 33's on white spokes, no back seat, carpets, no rear bumper etc. SWB auto.
