    So basically the armoured D4 can carry 3 decent sized adults before its overweight.
    Cheers,

    Mathematics was never my strong point ... I looked at it quickly and came up with 400 kg, which would mean three of me would put it way overweight. Actually three of me nearly breaks the 500 kg limit as well. ...

    Edit* ... Have now spoken with the engineer and he asked for any info re the armoured D4 to be sent to him, which I now have. Let's see where it goes from here.
    Cheers,

    nah, three sound right to me.
    I've seen movies - they're big steroid built bodyguards who each carry 20 odd guns, rocket launchers and the like and enough ammo to last an hour or two till help arrives
    :-)
    hmmm.....maybe only 2 adults....

    Ok, so I asked the question of LRA about the GVMs, tow ball weights and what not for D4s MY12-14 and RRS of same years, but specifically the MY12 being what I have.

    Their answer is: that its not for them to comment on.....
    And then they asked for my VIN, no doubt to put a comment in my file under the heading "reasons to refuse warranty"

    Did you respond with "its not for me to comment on....."
    when they asked for your VIN.....

    I wonder if the armoured D4 has different wheel bearings, suspension parts, etc to cater for the increased weight? If so, we mortals could upgrade the parts to give a GVM increase.

    The 200 upgrade must be done before first registered so the plate does not show as a modification, lovells and arb are the two I know of that can do this.
