Yes I would also guess aroung the 250kg mark. I have lifted one onto a ute by myself without any problems (but it had no swinging panels.) |

so what about the engine, gearbox,etc weight considering the whole car should be around the 600-700kg mark |

Body ~250kg Engine and gearbox ~160kg Then add.... subframes suspension wheels, tyres glass doors, boot, bonnet interior etc. It all adds up. |

You are not lifting 250kg, you are only lifting less than half depending on how it is sitting, probably only lifting about 75kg. Actually they are fairly easy to stand on their end when empty. |

Simon, I had to get your old van off the trailer by myself, and then lift it onto the trolley solo as well. 
It can be done, but I think I have bigger balls now from the effort!

When released the 850 shell was 310 pounds bare. 
I have measured the weight of a 998 engine. I'll post the link in an update. [Edit: post lost in the great crash of 08 but the engine/box/starter/carb weight was 125 kg give or take a couple] M |
