This would give a total weight of 1996lb or 903Kg.
Of course, a Ruby is heavier and can carry more than earlier Sevens.
It's a pity no publication source is quoted for that info Colin - unless it's in the handbook cited as source for the 'specifications'?
Surely by far the easiest solution here is to find out what other owners have got away with when taking their cars for MOT? I'm sure there are at least one or two A7's in Switzerland. Or, for that matter, other vintage car owners, who will doubtless have encountered the same issue.
