What is the weight of a mini shell striped bare of all parts? (bolt on panels, glass, interior, wiring every nut and bolt).

Dont know the weight but i dred to think how many times me and my mate have shifted my bare shell around minus the doors , boot and bonnet.
We have carried it onto several trailers when i have moved house and then off again into the shed.

Just a guess also id go for approx 120kg maybe less completely stripped.

Suspension i would Guess at 250 kg " front and back all bits subs etc "
Interior i would guess at 80-90 kg
Engine + Gearbox radiator +attachments 180-200kg

Hmm mini's are around 650-680 Kg , that leaves ........my head hurts :-)

So my 'rough' guess of 140.6 Kg was pretty accurate then eh!
