Re: Weight of the mighty Corty
You could be right Jason. The manual also states in a Note: " Add 55lb for auto transmission" which is another 25kg or so. I guess kerb weight means without oil/petrol etc. I'll ferret out my old rego papers & compare.
Also came across extract of some original Wheels road test figures from Jan & July '73 for the 250ci 4spd (155bhp @ 4000 rpm)
In Jan '73
0-60mph 11 sec
0-80mph 19.9sec
Standing qtr 17.5sec (probably on BR70H13 radials on 51/2 inch rims)
Speed in gears
1st 42mph
2nd 63mph
3rd 85mph
4th 112mph
Scary stuff. could never get mine to change direction on my terms!
