    compliance plate?

    I was looking through the brochures etc for the (on paper) weight of my SDV6, and found it to be 2115kg, with GCM 6500 and I saw on the rego paper that the Tare weight is 2052kg, but no GCM or GVM on the rego paper. So I thought I would take a look at the compliance plate, but I cannot seem to locate it..... anyone else found the location of their compliance plate?

    Here is the inside of the door pillar. I see a 'sticker' that could be a compliance plate of sorts. Is that it these days? I was expecting to see something metal with rivets.... maybe times have changed.

    Spec sheet says 2440 kgs . I assume this is empty , so fuel add 100kg and then wheels if change , mine I reckon an extra 40 k , so 2600 . Will be interesting to get the weight sorted before I hook the van up.

    Don’t trust the spec sheet, options change everything.

    Weight usually includes WET, fuel and 75kg driver for LR.

    so, between what you expected and what you got there's about 200kg worth of marketing spin. heavy stuff, if only it could be removed.
