Hi all,
Can any one give me a rough idea of the weight difference between an early bay 8 seater kombi and an early bay singlecab. Also carrying capacity would be usefull too (i think the 8 seater can carry around 800kg?).
Thanks guys

For the *late* bays, weight difference between a SC and a Kombi is only 5 kg (1305/1300 respectively) , so I expect it's very similar for the earlies. Payload 1000/995 respectively, but that will be different for the earlies.
