Hopefully it'll be sub 600kg. I know of someone on the kit car forum I use with an MK with a pinto which weighed in at 560kg. The XUD is about 20kg heavier. I'll get it weighed when it's on the road to find out
Insurance sorted, MOT test booked for tuesday, eeek. I took the top section of my pump off today to find the source of a diesel dribble. I managed to break one half of a small bracket. What a fanny rotter. (no idea what it's called, the bit in red in the pic below. The pic below is of the old dead pump btw, just using it to show the bracket i mean)
Since I don't yet know what I'm doing with these pumps I might swap an untouched standard bosch pump over and fix the b0rked pump on my bench. Otherwise I can see myself spending half a day getting another bracket then going to fit it and breaking that one too, idk.
To do before test: fix pump/fit another pump, get hazards to work without ignition on, align headlights, sort out bonnet mount. Everything else to do is cosmetic and can wait.
