At the social the weight of the Open Sky system was mentioned and an another post here today Kaine mentioned the Open Sky weighing as much another human onboard! Hmmm So here are the official weights of our options then (al in Kg):
Open Sky: 35.0
Climatronic: 27.7
Sports pack (alloys and suspension): 20.6
Space saver spare: 14,0
6J 16' Alloys: 11.8 (and I thought they are supposed to be lighter!)
Sat nav colour: 9.1
BOSE Sound: 6.2
6J x 15' alloys: 5.2
Luggage floor: 5.0 (!!!)
Front sport seats in leather/alcantara: 4.7
Sat nav B&W: 4.6
Sideguard airbags: 3.6
Rear bench seat: 3.2 (interesting as this is 1,2 TDI standard to save weight! - or do they have yet another seat for that Lucas?)
Chorus speaker upgrade: 3.2
Luggage cover: 3.1
6 CD changer: 3.0
Headlight washers: 2.8
Sports seats in Jacquard satin: 2.7
Floor mats with protective strips: 2.5
Leather upholstery: 2.0
Satellite cloth: 1.5
Electric rear windows: 1.5
Electric lumbar: 1.3
Symphony front loading 6CD: 1.0
Heated front seats: 0.8
Front fog lights: 0.8
DIS: 0.7 (surprisingly heavy)
Accoustic parking system: 0.5
Winter pack (full incl heater jets): 0.3
Three spoke steering wheel: 0.2
Illuminated sunvisors: 0.2
Cruise control: 0.1 (proof it is only a stalk)
Now the intersting ones (they weigh NOTHING but you pay for them!)
Concert RDS radio single CD
Automatic dipping rear view mirror
Elasticated belt system
ISOFIX
Metallic paint
Four spoke steering wheel
Multi function steering wheel
(...and yes I know it is because their weights are negligible and thus less than 100g)
and the most expensive option that weighs nothing (and is thus just software):
TV function for the Sat Nav.
So add a few of those up and you do have another person with you ALL the time (eg open Sky & climatronic & BOSE & Space saver & Luggage floor & Symphony & illuminated sunvisors & lugggae cover as I have, adds 92.2Kg to my car!!! That is one big bloke there ALL the time!
