    Hi all,

    Anyone know if there's anywhere that offers a service to weigh a car?

    Over the last few years there's been some weight saving done on the car, so I'm wondering if I got it below 600kg (manufacturer stated 675kg)

    Check with your Local Authority to see if they have a weighbridge. For instance, here's details on the one Wexford Co. Council operate:

    Any where with a weigh bridge. Local authority send people to local quarry if a weight cert is needed for commercial vehicle.

    You could also get a motorsport outfit to do and corner weight the car at the same time.

    As said above check the local authority website for authorised weigh bridges but if it isn't for commercial tax then anywhere with one will probably do it for you

    If you just want to know and don't need an official report, you could bring it to your local waste disposal place, they weigh cars on the way in and way out to calculate how much you have dumped.
