Things that add weight. Extension to roll over bar (I'm over 6'2"), custom (no flex) pedal box, JK Composite seats (for another £1800 I could save 1-2kg fitting carbon Tilletts), massive track day friendly Stainless silencer, Sierra diff fitted with Quaife ATB
With 1/2 tank of fuel 525kg

It was a bit of a guess but still loads of money for just a couple of kg

Even though I am a little obsessed with car weight, I can't be bothered to put my Striker on a diet.
It is plenty fast as it is for the road. And anything under 600 kg is good enough for me.

But it does have a 2.0 litre pinto boat anchor fitted and full eather gear!
North of 700kg!
